Okie From Muskogee

Okie From Muskogee - Merle Haggard

Written by：M. Haggard/R. E. Burris

We don't smoke m*******a in Muskogee

We don't take our trips on LSD

We don't burn our draft cards down on main street

We like livin' right

Bein' free

We don't make a party out of lovin'

We like holdin' 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

Place where even squares can have a ball

We still wave old glory down at the courthouse

And white lightnin's still the biggest thrill of all

Hey

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

I'm proud to be an Okie from Muskogee

Thank you

A place where even squares can have a ball

We still wave old glory down at the courthouse

And white lightnin's still the biggest thrill of all

We still wave old glory down at the courthouse

In Muskogee Oklahoma USA
