Lyrics

[Verse 1] I went back to Ohio But my city was gone There was no train station There was no downtown South Howard had disappeared All my favorite places My city had been pulled down Reduced to parking spaces [Chorus] Ay, oh, way to go, Ohio [Verse 2] Well, I went back to Ohio But my family was gone I stood on the back porch There was nobody home I was stunned and amazed My childhood memories Slowly swirled past Like the wind through the trees [Chorus] Ay, oh, way to go, Ohio [Guitar Solo] [Verse 3] I went back to Ohio But my pretty countryside Had been paved down the middle By a government that had no pride The farms of Ohio Had been replaced by shopping malls And Muzak filled the air From Seneca to Cuyahoga Falls [Chorus] Said, ay, oh, way to go, Ohio [Guitar Solo Outro]
