****************** 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.
