Okie from Muskogee Lyrics by Willie Nelson
We don’t smoke *** in Muskogee
We don’t take no trips on ***
We don’t burn our draft cards down on Main Street
We like living right and being free
We don’t make a party out of loving
We like holding hands and pitching woo
And we don’t let our hair grow long and shaggy
Like ’em 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 courthouse
White lightning’s still the biggest thrill of all
Play it, sister
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
And the kids here 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 courthouse
White lightning’s still the biggest thrill of all
and we still wave Old Glory down at the courthouse
And white lightning’s still the biggest Georgian song
