(Cincinnati Ohio Cincinnati Ohio)
One more hour and I'll be home close my eyes and rest my bones
Can't be more than a mile or so from Cincinnati Ohio Cincinnati Ohio
Cincinnati where the river winds cross the Mason and the Dixie Line
Heaven waits for me I know in Cincinnati Ohio Cincinnati Ohio
I guess perhaps the memories got too strong
Grabbed me by the heart strings and pulled me home
I got to thinkin' bout some friends I know in Cincinnati Ohio Cincinnati Ohio
(Cincinnati Ohio Cincinnati Ohio)
I walked half way from Lewieville now there she lies at the foot of the hill
Shining like a jewel in the valley below Cincinnati Ohio Cincinnati Ohio
Cincinnati where the river winds...
