Ohio (come Back To Texas) Lyrics


She said she needed a break
A little time to think
But then she went to Cleveland
With some guy named Leeland
That she met at the bank
There's nothing wrong with Ohio
Except the snow and the rain
I really like Drew Carey
And I'd love to see
The Rock 'n Roll Hall Of Fame
So when you're done
Doing whatever
And when you're through
Doing whoever
You know Denton county
Will be right here waitin' for you
Come back to Texas
It's just not the same

Since you went away
Before you lose your accent
And forget all about the Lonestar state
There's a seat for you at the Rodeo
(Aah)
And I've got every slow dance saved
Besides the Mexican food sucks north of here anyway
I think I made a mistake
It's not that easy to take
She went to make a deposit
Then she cleaned out her closet
Guess I'll sit here and wait
For her to come back home
(I wish she'd come back)
It shouldn't take very long
(So long, so long)
I bet she misses the sunrise
And Mrs. Baird's fruit pies
But I could be wrong
So when you're done
Doing whatever
And when you're through
Doing whoever
You know Denton county
Will be right here waitin' for you
Come back to Texas
It's just not the same
Since you went away
I bet you missed your exit
And drove right on through the Lonestar state
There's a seat for you at the Rodeo
(Aah)
And I've got every slow dance saved
Besides the Mexican food sucks north of here anyway
Troy Aikmen wants you back
Willie Nelson wants you back
N.A.S.A. wants you back
And the Bush twins want you back
(La la la la)
And Pantera wants you back
(La la la la)
And Bluebell wants you back
I got a premonition
(Aah)
I'm takin' a petition
And the whole state's gonna sign
Come back to Texas
It's just not the same
Since you went away
I bet you missed your exit
And drove right on through the Lonestar State
There's a seat for you at the Rodeo
And I've got every slow dance saved
Come back to Texas
It's just not the same
Since you went away
Before you lose your accent
And forget all about the Lonestar state
There's a seat for you at the Rodeo
(Aah)
And I've got every slow dance saved
Besides the Mexican food sucks north of here anyway
Besides the Mexican food sucks north of here anyway
Besides the Mexican food sucks north of here anyway, yeah

Bowling for Soup (acronym: BFS, or sometimes B4S) is a pop punk band based in Denton, Texas (but originally from Wichita Falls, Texas) formed in 1994 from the ruins of an old metal band. Quoting Jaret Reddick, the lead singer, "we wanted to make happy music". They're known for their often humorous lyrics, upbeat guitar riffs, and Jaret's distinctive voice.

They are best known for their singles "Girl All The Bad Guys Want" in 2002 on Drunk Enough To Dance which was nominated for a 2003 Grammy Award for "Best Pop Performance by a Group or Duo" and "1985" (originally written by Mitch Allan of SR-71) in 2004 on A Hangover You Don't Deserve. Speaking with Songfacts about "Girl All The Bad Girls Want" in a 2010 interview, Reddick said: "'Girl All The Bad Guys Want' was my very first co-write ever, and me and Butch Walker sat in a room and literally wrote that song in 30 minutes. I mean, it was done."

The band's name is derived from comedian Steve Martin's "Bowling for Sh*t" routine from his 1978 comedy album, Wild and Crazy Guy, itself a reference to Bowling for Dollars. Jaret Reddick has also stated that at the end of his last performance with his old band one of the members came on stage and proclaimed "Come back next week when we play with our new band... Bowling For Soup!". This was supposed be to be joke name, but since they couldn't think of anything better the name stuck. Their single '1985' can be found on the UK and the Norwegian editions of Singstar Rocks for the PS2.

They have also became hits on Radio Disney with edits of "1985", "Punk Rock 101", "High School Never Ends", and the inclusion of their version of "I Melt With You" in the Disney movie "Sky High". They have also written and recorded "Today Is Gonna Be A Great Day" as the theme song for Disney's "Phineas and Ferb"

Band Lineup:
Jaret Reddick - Lead Vocals/guitar
