Okie From Muskogee
Merle Haggard
(Roy E. Burris, & Merle R. Haggard)
Transcriber- Anita W. Cantor
We don't smoke marijuana in, Muskogee
We don't take no trips on LSD
We don't burn no draft cards down on Main Street
We like livin' right, bein' free
An' we don't make no party outta lovin'
We like holdin' hands an' pitchin' woo
We don't let our hair grow long n' 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 old glory down at the Court House
An' white lightnin's still the biggest thrill of all
An' leather boots are still in style for manly footwear
Beads an' Roman sandals won't be seen
Football is still the roughest thing on campus
And the kids, they still respect the college dean
And I'm proud to be an Okie from Muskogee
A place where even squares can have a ball
We still wave Old Glory, down at the Court House
An' white lightnin's still the biggest thrill of all
An' white lightnin's still the biggest thrill of all
In Muskogee, Oklahoma, USA
(Eeeeeeeee)
