Текст песни: Leaving Omaha + перевод

On Stage at the Orpheum

Waiting for a diploma

Lookin' 'round at my classmates

Ready to disown them

My bags were packed, I was ready to leave

For University-

I was moving up and out-

Out of Omaha…

It didn’t last

One night I was drinking alone

So I drove out to Denver

To visit an old friend

Who had settled down there

I kept on driving all through the night

And threw up at dawn’s early light-

Sick on caffeine pills

My friend, he escaped from Omaha…

I never will

I had a lover once

She was a nomad

I would’ve followed her anywhere

So we moved out to Portland

She was selling baggage-

I bought all I could-

And that was all it took to make my escape

Oh Omaha

You never looked so good

I am leaving

I’m sailing away

My time in Iowa was just a holiday

I’ve gotta get back over that bridge

To the town were I live-

I guess that’s where I’ll stay

Omaha
