I've travelled all over this country
From New York to Los Angeles

There is music and architecture
The beautiful Music Hall stage
The people are slim and attractive
And all very young for their age.

As far as the eye can see.
And thanks to their Christian upbringing,
They sing in four-part harmony.

Akron is perfect, Lord knows,
And Cleveland's a beautiful city
Where the Cuyahoga flows.

Tell your mother and daddy
If you're tired of life on the coasts
There is happiness in Cincinnati
