Okie From Muskogee

We don't smoke marijuana in Muskogee we don't take no trips on LSD

We don't burn out draft cards down on Main Street

'Cause we like living right and being free

We don't make a party out of loving but we like holding hands and pitchin' 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 Ole Glory down at the courthouse

And white lightning's still the biggest thrill of all

Leather boots are still in style for manly foot wear

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...

And white lightning's still the biggest thrill of all in Muskogee Oklahoma USA
