Lyrics
Okie From Muskogee
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
We don't smoke marijuana in Muskogee and we don't take trips on LSD
We don't burn our draft cards down on Main Street
Cause we like living right and being free
And we don't make a party out of loving but we like holding hands and pitching woo
We don't let our hair grow long and shaggy like the hippies out in San Francisco do
And I'm proud to be an Okie from Muskogee
A place where even squares can have a ball
We still wave Ol' Glory down at the courthouse
And white lightning's still the biggest thrill of all
Leather boots are still in style for manly footwear
Beads and Roman sandals won't be seen
Football's still the roughest thing on campus
And the kids here still respect the college dean
And I'm proud to be an Okie...
And white lightning's still the biggest thrill of all (in Muskogee Oklahoma USA)
