O-hio

I've traveled round from state to state
To other lands I've been
There's no place in this whole world
Like the Buckeye State my friend
Where peaceful farmland stretches out
As far as the eye can see
From the hills in the south
To the lake up north
It's home sweet home to me
Ohio
I'm heading home to you
The road to Columbus
Will carry me through
The sweetest country in the land
That's where I long to go
'Cause there's nowhere that can compare with Ohio
Now ol' Kentucky's mighty fine
The home of Bill Monroe
And West Virginia's wonderful and wild
I know you know
And lots of folks they'd love to live
In sunny Tennessee
But put me in Ohio boys
That's where I'd rather be
Ohio
I'm heading home to you
The road to Columbus
Will carry me through
The sweetest country in the land
That's where I long to go
'Cause there's nowhere that can compare with Ohio
If you're still wondering
Why Ohio's where I'd rather be
My wife and children live there
And they mean the world to me
Mom and Dad still live there too
They say they miss me so
And the kindest friends that's ever been
All live in Ohio
Ohio
I'm heading home to you
The road to Columbus
Will carry me through
The sweetest country in the land
That's where I long to go
'Cause there's nowhere that can compare with Ohio
For nowhere can compare with Ohio
