OMAHA
written by Billy Joe Shaver and Hillman Hall
performed by Waylon Jennings
Capo on the 2nd fret
Chorus:
Omaha you've been weighing heavy on my mind
I guess I never really left at all
I'm turning all those roads I've walked around the other way
And coming back to you, Omaha
Verse 1:
Omaha, Nebraska wasn't good enough for me
I always thought I was the roamin' kind
With a pocket full of dreams and my one shirt on my back
I left there looking for some things to find
Verse 2:
Rode my thumb to San Francisco, I worked down by the bay
Got some schoolin' paid for by the law
The hardest thing I learned was there ain't no easy way
To get ahead behind those county walls
Verse 3:
So it's so long California, I reckon' I'll be moving on
I'm leaving even if I had to crawl
I got some loose ends around that I left undone
Waiting there for me in Omaha
Chorus
