Boy In Ohio

Creek was running by the road

And the buckeye sun was a-shinin'

I rode my bike down alum creek drive

When i was a boy in ohio

The english teacher he didn't care

F

He challenged us to checkers

Bb　 dm　　 d7

And once in a while we'd swap a joke

When i was a boy in ohio

Once i was caught playing hooky from school

They found me home in the evening

I confessed i had been to the movie show

When i was a boy in ohio

We would wait for the summer to come

For swimmin' and pickin' berries

But now a freeway covers the field

Where i used to be so happy

I remember the burger boy

Where the girls would shine like the engines

And the radio was always loud

When i was a boy in ohio

Spanish teacher she tried to help

She was much too pretty

So i just stared at the back of her legs

When i was a boy in ohio

It was 3.2 beer* at the honky tonk bar

Where they said the girls were easy

But somehow i never found me one

When i was a boy in ohio

Soon i was grown and i had to leave

And i've been all over the country

But i don't believe i've had more fun

Than when i was a boy in ohio
