"Why D'Ya Go To Cleveland"

[Intro:]
Oh baby, oh man
Why d'ya do it?
Huh? Oh

My dead end love affair
Turned me to alcohol
Took me to big nowhere
Took me to out of town

I was just seventeen
He had a motor car
Gave me a wedding ring
Gave me a rubber doll

[Pre-Chorus:]
Man, I believed him
And what he say about Cleveland
My American dreamboat
Yeah, dreamland Ohio

[Chorus:]
He'd say some day
I'd be something
Uh-huh, oh

My dead end love affair
Drove me to seek out God
Turned me from beauty queen
Turned me to alcohol

[Pre-Chorus:]
Man, I believed him
And what he say about Cleveland
My American dreamboat
Yeah, dreamland Ohio

[Chorus:]
He'd say some day
I'd be something
Uh-huh, uh-huh, oh

[Bridge:]
Why d'ya have to go down there?
Why d'ya have to go down there?
Why d'ya have to go down there?
Why d'ya have to go down?

[Chorus:]
He'd say someday I'd be
Someday I'd be something

[Post-Chorus:]
Something
Say something
Damn you, something
Say, say something
Say something
Something

[Outro:]
My dead end love affair
Why d'ya have to go down there?
Why d'ya have to go down there?
Why d'ya have to go down there?
My dead end love affair
Why d'ya have to go down there?
My dead end love affair
Why d'ya have to go down there?
