Omaha

Start tearing the old man down 
Run past the heather and down to the old road 
Start turning the grain into the ground 
Roll a new leaf over 
In the middle of the night there's an old man 
Treading around in the gathered rain 
Hey mister if you want to walk on water 
Would you drop a line my way 

Omaha 
Somewhere in middle America 
Get right to the heart of matters 
It's the heart that matters more 
I think you'd better turn your ticket in 
And get your money right at the door 

Start threading the needle 
Brush past the shuttle that slides through the cold room 
Start turning the wool across the wire 
Roll the new life over 
In the middle of the night there's an old man 
Threading his toes through a bucket of rain 
Hey mister if you want to walk on water 
You're only going to walk all over me 

Omaha 
Somewhere in middle America 
Get right to the heart of matters 
It's the heart that matters more 
I think you'd better turn your ticket in 
And get your money right at the door 

Start running the banner down 
Drop past the color come up through the summer rain 
Start turning the girl into the ground 
Roll a new life over 
In the middle of the day there's a young man 
Rolling around in the earth and rain 
Hey mister if you're going to walk on water,
you know you're only going to walk all over me 

Omaha 
Somewhere in middle America 
Get right to the heart of matters 
It's the heart that matters more 
I think you'd better turn your ticket in 
And get your money right at the door
