Over The Rhine - Welcome Home Lyrics

Over The Rhine Lyrics

"Welcome Home"

My roots grow by the river
They are deeper than the sea
My people and this city
They hold and anchor me

While we sing "Hello, Ohio"
Meet me there and you will see
When I call Cincinnati
"Welcome home," she answers me

All the highways I have travelled
Run together like a song
When I cross that bridge I see
Familiar faces sing along

And the arms of the Ohio
Hold me where I long to be
When I call Cincinnati
"Welcome home," she answers me

Welcome home
Welcome home
Oh, Cincinnati
Ohio

My roots grow by the river
They are deeper than the sea
My people and this city
They hold and anchor me

While we sing "Hello, Ohio"
Meet me there and you will see
When I call Cincinnati
"Welcome home," she answers me
