Lyrics My City Was Gone

I went back to Ohio but my city was gone
There was no train station there was no downtown
South Howard had disappeared all my favorite places
My city had been pulled down reduced to parking spaces
Hey oh, way to go, Ohio
Oh, I went back to Ohio but my family was gone
I stood on the back porch there was nobody home
I was stunned and amazed
My childhood memories slowly swirled past like the wind through the trees
Hey oh, way to go, Ohio
I went back to Ohio but my pretty countryside
Had been paved down the middle by a government that had no pride
The farms of Ohio had been replaced by shopping malls
And Muzak filled the air from Seneca to Cuyahoga Falls
Said hey oh, way to go, Ohio
