"Ohio (Come Back to Texas)" is a single by Texas band Bowling for Soup from their album A Hangover You Don't Deserve. It tells the story of a young girl who left Texas and went to Cleveland, Ohio, but now the singer and others miss her back home. Although the song is called Ohio, most of the lyrics reference things associated with Texas. The singer is very upset that his girl has run off with someone else, and is trying to convince himself that she will definitely come home because Ohio sucks.
