Onstage at the Orpheum Waiting for a diploma Looking out at my classmates Ready to disown them My bags were packed I was ready to leave For university I was moving up and out Out of Omaha Oh, it didn't last One night I was drinking alone So I drove out to Denver Letras de cancionesTo visit an old friend Who had settled down there I kept on driving all through the night And threw up in dawn's early light Sick on caffeine pills My friend, he escaped from Omaha Oh, I never will Oh, I had a lover once She was a nomad Would have followed her anywhere So we moved out to Portland She was selling baggage I bought all I could And that was all it took To make my escape Oh, Omaha, oh, you never looked so good I am leaving I'm sailing away My time in Iowa Was just a holiday I've got to get back over that bridge To the town where I live I guess that's where I'll stay Oh, Omaha, oh, Omaha From Letras Mania
