[00:02.47]Eileen: Oh Ruth

[00:27.08]Eileen: I did, but I keep thinking of Ohio
[00:31.65]Ruth: Oh Eileen, me too
[00:34.86]Both: Why, oh why, oh why, oh
[00:40.57]Why did I ever leave Ohio?
[00:46.66]Why did I wander to find what lies yonder
[00:53.27]When life was so cozy at home?
[00:59.52]Wond’ring while I wander,
[01:05.46]Why did I fly?
[01:09.13]Why did I roam?
[01:11.50]Oh, why oh, why oh

[01:34.22]Ruth: Now listen, Eileen,
[01:36.39]Ohio was stifling.
[01:38.00]We just couldn’t wait to get out of the place,
[01:41.24]With mom saying -- ‘Ruth, what, no date for this evening’
[01:44.50]Eileen: And pop with, ‘Eileen, do be home, dear, by ten.’
[01:48.34]Both: Ugh!

[01:51.30]And everyone yapping who’s going with whom
[01:54.38]Eileen: And dating those drips that I’ve known since I’m four.
[01:57.94]Ruth: The kiwanis club dance.
[01:59.64]Eileen: On the basketball floor.
[02:01.38]Ruth: Cousin maude with her lectures on sin

[02:33.11]Wond’ring while we wander,
[02:46.84]Why did we fly?
