Live Pre-Album Version Album Version
Ramona where have you been?
Taking a ride around with all your friends
Ramona I think we might be half asleep
Cause every day is another day
We're going over but we don't meet

Cause I have find behind my back
A couple of years we started to drag
Over and over I found out I'm wrong
About everything I know

I don't want to dig too deep
It's dirty and the stink comes 'round
Why'd you have to punch my eye?
I don't know nothing
And I still want you to stay

Nobody wants to believe in themself
Nobody's better to love and now
You can be great and you know what
They'll say then, "Miss nobody ever does"

Cause I have found behind my back
A couple of years we started to drag
Over and over I find out I'm wrong
About everything I know

Cause I found out behind my back
A couple of years we started to drag
Over and over I find out I'm wrong
About everything I know

Cause I have found behind my back
A couple of years we started to drag
Over and over I found out I'm wrong
About everything I know
I really want to believe we'll get well
No one will ever become like this
Memory lane will become when we tear into
Nobody ever does

Ramona where have you been?
I couldn't go to sleep till you came in
Ramona you're Miss Oklahoma and you
Miss Oklahoma
I'll get you what you want

Cause there were days when a refrain
Would brighten our corner of Hickory Lane
When you would sing that song for me
Just like your favorite singer

Why'd you have to be so nice?
A wink and a girlie smile
And why'd you have to punch my eye?
That was something
But did you want me to stay?

When I was younger and thought of myself
I never dreamed I'd become like this
A snap of your fingers an end to the arguments
Anything for you, Love

Cause there were days when a refrain
Would brighten our corner of Hickory Lane
When you would sing that song for me
The only one you know
But I know now, not at the start
We're going to pieces we're falling apart
So come and sing that song for me
Just like your favorite singer
