Beautiful Ohio
Written by Ballard
MacDonald
special lyrics by Wilbert B.
McBride
Composed by Mary
Earl
I sailed away;
Wandered
afar;
Crossed the mighty restless sea;
Looked for where I ought to
be.
Cities so grand, mountains above,
Led to this land I
love.
Chorus
Beautiful Ohio, where the
golden grain
Dwarf the lovely flowers in the summer rain.
Cities
rising high, silhouette the sky.
Freedom is supreme in this majestic
land;
Mighty factories seem to hum in tune, so grand.
Beautiful
Ohio, thy wonders are in view,
Land where my dreams all come true!
Original Chorus as written by Ballard
MacDonald
Drifting with the current down
a moonlit stream
While above the Heavens in their glory gleam
And
the stars on high
Twinkle in the sky
Seeming in a paradise of love
divine
Dreaming of a pair of eyes that looked in mine
Beautiful
Ohio, in dreams again I see
Visions of what used to
be.
