[Verse One]
She's got pretty almond eyes
I was taken by surprise
She was standing at the show
Why? I guess I'll never know
Should I stay or should I go?

[Chorus One]
You can stay a little longer
You can stay a little longer
You can stay a little longer
Stay a little longer as my heart grows fonder

(Heavy drums and bass riff)

[Verse Two]
I don't have another day
Cause they're taking her away
She was standing at the fair
Why I don't know I don't care
I just saw her standing there

[Chorus One]
You can stay a little longer
You can stay a little longer now
You can stay a little longer
Stay a little longer as my heart grows fonder

(Heavy bass and drums &)
[Chorus Two]
I ain't gonna be your Ohio man
I ain't gonna take you by the hand
I ain't gonna be your Ohio man
Oh take me out Ohio land
And I ain't gonna be your Ohio man
Ohio

[Verse Three ]
I've packed up my artifacts and leave in mid December
As I'm leaving all the things I know the one thing to remember is
That the middle of nowhere is somewhere for someone else
Ohio's gonna get you or she'll put you on the bottom shelf


Yeah baby
I said yeah baby
She'll break the poor boy down
Cause who's got words for times these

[Chorus One]
You can stay a little longer
You can stay a little longer
You can stay a little longer
Stay a little longer as my heart grows fonder

(Heavy bass and drums)

[Chorus Two]
I ain't gonna be your Ohio man
I ain't gonna take you by the hand
I ain't gonna be your Ohio man
Oh take me out Ohio land
And I ain't gonna be your Ohio man
Ohio

[Woah], woah, woah...
