Oklahoma Sunshine

New York woman tryin' to make me love her

A sad eyed girl with rollers in her hair

Down the hall somebody's cooking cabbage

Kids're running up and down the stairs.

I'd like to leave this God forsaken city

But I can't go no matter how I try

But once again I'll be in Oklahoma tonight

When I lay down and close my eyes.

I'll be standing in that Oklahoma sunshine

Just got off a bus from another world

Kissing mom and shaking hands with papa

Dryin' the tears of an Oklahoma girl.

Standing in that Oklahoma sunshine

A dream that I have dreamed so many times

The blue eyed girl with the golden hair still loves me

When I go back to Oklahoma in my mind.

When the cold wind blows in this big city

A part of me flies home to where it's warm

New York woman thinks that I'm still with her

Just because I'm sleeping in her arms.

But I'll be standing in that Oklahoma sunshine

A dream that I have dreamed so many times

The blue eyed girl with the golden hair still loves me

When I go back to Oklahoma in my mind.

Oh, I'll be standing in that Oklahoma sunshine

Just got off a bus from another world...
