Out from my window, please hear me Ohio
Your daughter wants to come home
She longs to be with you
To hug you to kiss you
To never leave her alone
She stands on the sidewalk just waving at taxis
Like horses in parades in passing
I ask where she's headed she tells me
"Ohio, I have seen my mother in ages"

She longs to be with you
To hug you to kiss you
To never leave her alone
I've gotten to know her, to live with, to love her
It's hard to see her leave
She belongs to her mother and the state of Ohio
I wish she belonged to me
