Ohio (Come Back to Texas) Lyrics

(written by: Bowling For Soup)

Send "Ohio (Come Back to Texas)" Ringtone to your Cell

She said she needed a break
A little time to think
But then she went to Cleveland
With some guy named Leland
That she met at the bank

There's nothing wrong with Ohio
Except the snow and the rain
I really like Drew Carey
And I'd love to see the rock'n'roll hall of fame

So when your done doing whatever
And when your through doing whoever
You know Denton county will be right here waiting for you
Come back to Texas
It's just not the same since you went away
Before you lose your accent
And forget all about the lone star state
There's a seat for you at the rodeo
And I've got every slow dance saved
Besides the Mexican food sucks north of here anyways

I think I made a mistake
It's not that easy to take
She went to make a deposit
Then she cleaned out her closet
Guess I'll sit here and wait
For her to come back home
(I wish she'd come back home)
It shouldn't take very long
(so long, so long)
I bet she misses the sunrise
And misses the fruit pies
But I could be wrong

So when your done doing whatever
And when your through doing whoever
You know Denton county will be right here waiting for you
Come back to Texas
It's just not the same since you went away
I bet you missed your exit
And drove right on through the lone star state
There's a seat for you at the rodeo
And I've got every slow dance saved
Besides the Mexican food sucks north of here anyway

Troy Aikman wants you Back
Willy Nelson wants you Back
NASA wants you Back
And the Bush twins want you Back
And Pantero wants you back
And Bluebell wants you back

I got a premonition
of taking a petition
And the whole states gonna sign

Come back to Texas
It's just not the same since you went away
Before you lose your accent
And forget all about the lone star state
There's a seat for you at the rodeo
And I got every slow dance saved

Come back to Texas
It's just not the same since you went away
Before you lose your accent
And forget all about the lone star state
There's a seat for you at the rodeo
And I got every slow dance saved

Besides the mexican food sucks north of here anyway

Besides the mexican food sucks north of here anyway

Besides the mexican food sucks north of here anyway
(yeeaah)

This is totally off topic & I wouldn't do this, but I don't want to see
what's happened to me happen to any of you. If you are EVER moving long
distance (such as cross country), NEVER EVER use a moving company named
Infinity Movers. Unless of course you never liked those possessions to begin
with & don't mind never seeing them again. And if you don't mind paying a
ridiculous price on top of that.

Most of the things that were supposed to be on the truck were never put on
board & if I hadn't returned when I did, those things (such as antiques)
would have been lost forever as are most of my mother's clothes, furniture &
my own photo album full of people I'll never see again & jewelry just to
name a few items.

They literally dumped out items that we'd packed onto the floor in favor of
heavier items simply to artifficially inflate the price (which they did).
Afterwards those items were crushed beyond recognition, it seemed whatever
hadn't been crushed was simply "gone". Also there are several highly priced
items that went missing during the time they were there.

All in all, they were very dishonest & cruel. They said we'd have 4 men,
ready to go at 8am on 7/13, it got pushed back a day when they knew we HAD
to be out of that home by 9am on the 15th. Again we were told 4 men at 8am,
ended up with 2 scrawny guys at 9am who rifled through belongings for 2
hours saying why they couldn't do it. 4 hours later (after the lead guy had
turned the truck around after having been "halfway to New York", as he said)
with 2 guys off the street who were NOT liscenced, bonded or insured who
walked off the job another 4 hours later. They felt the job was completed at
about 4am the morning of the 15th, even though there were still boxes all
throughout the house that were supposed to be on the truck that never made
it there. Again we never would've those things again if we hadn't come back
when we did.

Currently the situation is still ongoing, despite the fact we first
contacted them on July 7th & it should've been taken care within 2 weeks.

I apologize for it not exactly being in chonological order & for it being so
long, but this is the short version. Thank you to those who've read this &
again, in order to keep this from happening to you, NEVER go w/ Infinity
Movers.

And here's why they're properly named. Because you'll be waiting until
infinity for them to answer your call, waiting until infinity for them to
show up, waiting until infinity for them to do the job & finally, you'll be
waiting until infinity to get your belongings back & praying all the while
you get them all back & all in one piece.

Ohio is awesome never been 2 texas but Ohio is awesome especially Cleveland
ancksunamun909 26/04/2005 22:14:02
This song is crazy! I am moving to Ohio, my mom's whole family lives up there, and I' going to college up there too. I hail from good ol' (crappy) San Marcos, Texas. I've got less than a month left here in the greatest state on the planet, and I'm going to miss it SO bad....especially Blue Bell's Cookies 'n' Cream! But I don't think I'll miss the Bush Twins...and who's Tara? Tara Reed? Anyways, for me, this song is strangely autobiographical right now. It could definitely be on My Life's soundtrack.
And I refuse to lose my accent!
Drama_Queen!622 17/04/2005 22:13:00
The song is sooo right about our Mexican food here in Texas!! It ROCKS!!!!
Zared 17/04/2005 20:40:23
Dude, Fruit flies? Fruit Pies. Those are what we like in Texas. Don't think we even have fruit flies. And Tara does not want anyone back But Panteros does. Denton County as we know. I'd correct them myself but haven't a clue as to how. Cheers

ames9109 29/10/2004 04:25:55

GhostManOnThird 27/10/2004 01:42:10

yaller 22/10/2004 07:11:53

yaller 22/10/2004 07:05:19
