Eugene, Oregon, I'll remember you for the rest of my life
I won't forget how good you were to me
No and I won't be forgettin' all the kindness that you show
To a homesick country girl a long, long way from Tennessee

Tired and weary and feelin' low
Among strange people I didn't know
A long, long way from home and a long time gone
Oh but Eugene, Oregon, you were kind
The love you gave was genuine
You gave me inspiration and the strength to carry on

Eugene, Oregon, I'll remember you for the rest of my life
And I won't forget how good you were to me
Oh an' I won't be forgettin' all the kindness that you show
To a homesick country girl a long, long way from Tennessee

Oh Eugene, Oregon, I have been trying to find a way to say thanks again
For standing up for me when I was alone
Oh and I couldn't think of a better way
To say the things that I wanted to say
Than to take my old guitar, sit right down and write you a song

Eugene, Oregon I'll remember you for the rest of my life
I won't forget how good you were to me
No and I won't be forgettin' all the kindness that you show
To a homesick country girl a long, long way from Tennessee

The love you gave was genuine
Eugene, Oregon I'll remember you for the rest of my life...
