I've been a long time gone from the river town. I¹ve been thinking about tomorrow. October brings the whole damn city out alive with its frenzy and its festival. Do you move like that so they can never get their piece of you? Do you dance so fast they can never get their fingers around you said, "The darkest day that Denver ever had was still brighter than the brightest in Ohio."
But Ohio has its way, and Ohio has its women (I am one of them), and Ohio may be better off without you, but I will suffer wild.
I've been a long time drowned in the river town. I¹ve been thinking about the leaving. My time, my beer, and all my luck ran out somewhere on St. Patrick's in the evening. Do you hold me up-downside over city lights? Somewhere in your mind and sleep it off tomorrow?
But Ohio has its way and Ohio has its women (I am one of them), and Ohio may be better off without you, but I will suffer wild.
Draw your circle here. You win and lose. You win and lose. Draw your circle here. You win and lose. You win and lose. You can keep me out of here, but you will lose.
Ohio has its way. Ohio has its women (I am one of them), and Ohio may be better off without you, but I will suffer wild. I will suffer wild, and I'll be on my way. I¹ll be on my way.
