Lyrics[]
Doris:
Why, oh, why, oh, why, oh
Why did I ever leave Ohio?
Why did I wander to find what lies yonder
When life was so cozy at home?
Beide:
Wondering while I wonder
Why did I fly?
Why did I roam?
Oh, why, oh, why, oh
Did I (Sue: You) leave Ohio?
Maybe I'd better go
Sue:
Home...
Doris:
O-H-I-O
Beide:
Maybe I'd (Sue: You'd) better go home
Sue:
Mother, this song still doesn't explain why you abandoned your children
Doris:
Ohio was stifling, and we couldn't wait to get out of the place
And I told you, "Sue, we're going to be hunting Nazis"
Sue:
And Pop said, "Sue, this might take a little while"
Doris:
Well, those Nazis are slippery, and me hunting them way down in Lima, Peru
Sue:
And we'd get postcards from Niagara Falls
Doris:
Well, I'm stalking Mengele in Bolivian malls
Sue:
Three times a year we'd get crackling phone calls!
Doris:
Happy birthday
Sue:
"Hunting Nazis!"
Doris:
Merry Christmas
Sue:
"Hunting Nazis!"
Doris:
Homesick
Sue:
Abandoned
Doris:
Heartsick
Sue:
Neglected!
Beide:
Thank heavens we're free!
Why, oh, why, oh, why, oh
Why did I ever leave Ohio?
Oh, why, oh, why, oh
Did I (Sue: You) leave Ohio?
Maybe I'd better stay
