Evening hillside, summertime
Jars we filled with fireflies
I remember you and I
Say, it's been a long long time

And I've been sitting by the Ohio
Watching the tow boats rolling up slow
Thinking of the places we used to go
You've been on my mind

Rain across the bottom land
Broken stones from an old mill dam
West wind blowing in the dawning day
Enough to blow the blues my way

And I've been sitting by the Ohio
Watching the tow boats rolling up slow
Thinking of the places we used to go
You've been on my mind

Rusty rails, an old river town
Whistles blowing New Orleans bound
Cornfields waiting for the plow
All the things I can't tell you now

And I've been sitting by the Ohio
Watching the tow boats rolling up slow
Thinking of the places we used to go
You've been on my mind

Indiana country roads
Winter's sky so deep and cold
New moon's arms, cradle the old
Come home songs on the radio

And I've been sitting by the Ohio
Watching the tow boats rolling up slow
Thinking of the places we used to go
You've been on my mind
