Salty Maureen had a bun in the oven
The daughters of charity let out a sigh
As she suffered they pleaded for mercy she needed
A long time ago
Long time ago
In the greenest cypress groves
We were beaming golden glow
Ohio heat
Sweet as sugar from a beet
Sleek as foxes in the street
Evolution seemed complete
Day after day and hour upon hour
She counted the seconds 'til she could no more
As she climbed through the window and lowered herself
With some sheets all tied up
Ran through the fields 'til the ocean got closer
Found a deserted and rusty old boat
As she fled for her life she did capsize and die
Such a long time ago
Long time ago
In the greenest cypress groves
We were beaming golden glow
Ohio heat
Sweet as sugar from a beet
Sleek as foxes in the street
Evolution seemed complete
Ohio heat
Sweet as sugar from a beet
Sleek as foxes in the street
Evolution seemed complete
Ohio heat
Blowing bubblegums discreet
Now there's flowers on the street
Where she smoked and skipped her feet
From time to time
On the flying tiger line
She appears in my sleep
When my dreams are lucid deep
Ohio heat
Sweet as sugar from a beet
Sleek as foxes in the street
Evolution seemed complete
Ohio heat, Ohio heat
Quote (Jason Lyttle from Grandaddy):
"Ohio Heat was named after the time when one of our road crew got a text message from... well, let's call it a young lady."
