Omaha you've been weighin' heavy on my mind
 Guess I never really left it all
 I'm turnin' all those roads I walked around the other way
 Coming back to you Omaha.


 Omaha, Nebraska was that good enough for me
 Always thought I was the roamin' kind
 With the pockets full of dreams in my worn shirt on my back
 I left there looking for some things to find.


 Rode my thumb to San Francisco I worked down by the bank
 Got some schoolin' faithful by the law
 The hardest thing I learned there was there ain't no easy way
 To get ahead behind those county walls.


 So it's so long California reckon I'll be a movin' on
 I'm leavin' even if I had to crawl
 I've got some losin's laying round
 That I left them burn waitin' there for me in Omaha.


 Omaha you've been weighin' heavy on my mind
 Guess I never really left it all
 I'm turnin' all those roads I walked around the other way
 Coming back to you Omaha.
