Oscar Hammerstein - Oklahoma lyrics

rate me

They couldn't pick a better time to start in life!

It ain't too early and it ain't too late

Startin as a farmer with a brand new wife

Soon be liv-in in a brand new state!

Brand new state

Gonna treat you great

Gonna give you barley, carrots and per taters

Pasture for the cattle

Spinach and ter-may-ters

Flowers on the prairie where the june bugs zoom

Plen'y of ao air and plen'y of room

Plenty of room to swing a rope

Plen'y of heart and plen'y of hope

Oklahoma where the wind comes sweeping down the plain

Where the wav-in wheat can sure smell sweet

When the wind comes right behind the rain

Oklahoma ev'ry night my honey lamb and I

Sit alone and talk and watch a hawk

Makin lazy circles in the sky

We know we belong to the land

And the land we belong to is grand

And when we say

Yeow! A-YIP-I-O-EE-AY

Were only say-in "you're doing fine Oklahoma,

Oklahoma OK"

Oklahoma where the wind comes sweeping down the plain, Oklahoma

Where the wav-in wheat can sure smell sweet

When the wind comes right behind the rain

Oklahoma ev'ry night my honey lamb and I, Every night

We sit alone and talk and watch a hawk

Makin lazy circles in the sky

We know we belong to the land

And the land we belong to is grand

Yippi-i

Yippi-i

Yippi-i

Yippi-i

Yippi-i

Yippi-i

And when we say

Yeow! A-YIP-I-O-EE-AY

Were only say-in "you're doing fine Oklahoma

Oklahoma, OK"

Okla-homa

Okla-homa

Okla-homa

Okla-homa

Okla-homa

Okla-

We know we belong to the land

And the land we belong to is grand

And when we say

Yeow! A-YIP-I-O-EE-AY

Were only say-in "you're doing fine Oklahoma,

Oklahoma"

O-k-L-A-H-O-M-A

Oklahoma!

Yeow!
