  • Song Lyrics » P » Phil Ochs » Boy In Ohio Lyrics
    pre>g c g
    Creek was running by the road
    D
    And the buckeye sun was a-shinin'
    G c g
    I rode my bike down alum creek drive
    Em am
    When i was a boy in ohio

    G c g
    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
    Eb
    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
