Ohio
Bowling For Soup/Punchline Lyrics

She said she needed a break
She expressed her need for some time off

A little time to think
She wanted some space to ponder about things

But then she went to Cleveland
However, she traveled to Cleveland

With some guy named Leland
And accompanied a man named Leland

That she met at the bank
Whom she met at the bank

There's nothing wrong with Ohio
The state of Ohio isn't bad

Except the snow and the rain
Except for the unpleasant weather conditions

I really like Drew Carey
I appreciate Drew Carey

And I'd love to see the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame
And I would be thrilled to visit the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame

So when your done doing whatever
So, after you've completed everything you need to do

And when your through doing whoever
And when you're done being with whoever you're with

You know Denton county will be right here waiting for you
You're aware that Denton county will always be here for you

Come back to Texas
Please return to Texas

It's just not the same since you went away
Things have changed since you left

Before you lose your accent
Don't let go of your accent

And forget all about the Lone Star State
And don't forget everything about the Lone Star State

There's a seat for you at the rodeo
We have a reserved seat for you at the rodeo

And I've got every slow dance saved
And I've kept a slow dance for you

Besides the Mexican food sucks north of here anyways
The Mexican food is not good in the northern states

I think I made a mistake
I believe I made an error

It's not that easy to take
It's not easy to handle

She went to make a deposit
She went to the bank to deposit something

Then she cleaned out her closet
But then she completely emptied her closet

Guess I'll sit here and wait
I suppose I'll sit here and wait

For her to come back home (I wish she'd come back home)
I hope she comes back home soon (I really wish she would)

It shouldn't take very long (so long, so long)
It shouldn't be too long until her return (so long, so long)

I bet she misses the sunrise
I'm certain she misses the sunrise

And Mrs. Baird's fruit pies
And Mrs. Baird's fruit pies too

But I could be wrong
However, I may be mistaken

Troy Aikman wants you back
Troy Aikman desires your return

Willy Nelson wants you back
Willy Nelson yearns for your return

Nasa wants you back
Even Nasa wants you back

And the Bush twins want you back (la la la la)
The Bush twins want you back as well (la la la la)

Pantera wants you back (la la la la)
Pantera wants you back too (la la la la)

And Bluebell wants you back
Even Bluebell wants you back

I got a premonition
I had a feeling in advance

Of taking a petition
Of submitting a petition

And the whole state's gonna sign
And the entire state will sign it

Besides the Mexican food sucks north of here anyway
Because the Mexican food isn't good in the northern states

Besides the Mexican food sucks north of here anyway
Besides, the Mexican food tastes bad in the northern states

Besides the Mexican food sucks north of here anyway (yeah)
Also, the Mexican food is terrible in the northern states (yeah)
