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 gonna "walk" on water

would you drop a line my way

Chorus:

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 back at the door

Start threading a needle

Brush past the shuttle that slides through the cold room

Start turning the wool across the wire

Roll a new life over

In the middle of the night there's an old man

threading his toes through a bucket of rain

Hey mister you don't want to walk on water

cause you're only going to walk all over me

[Chorus]

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 love 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

[Chorus]

ooooh said Omaha

It's Sunday morning

I'm coming home today.
