Jeannie C. Riley - Okie From Muskogee lyrics

rate me

We don't smoke marijuana in Muskogee

We don't take our trips on LSD

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

Cause we like a living right and being free

We don't make a party out of loving

Cause 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

The kids here still respect the college dean

And I'm proud to be an Okie from Muskogee...

White lightning's still the biggest thrill of all

In Muskogee Oklahoma USA
