Okie From Muskogee Songtext
von Phil Ochs

We don′t don't smoke marijuana
We don′t take our trips on LSD
We don't burn our draft cards down on Main Street
'Cause we like 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 Old Glory down at the courthouse
White lightnings still the biggest thrill of all

Leather boots are still in style for manly footware
Beads and Roman saddles won't be seen
Football′s still the roughest sport on a campus
And the kids 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 lightnings still the biggest thrill of all
White lightnings still the biggest thrill of all
In Muskogee Oklahoma USA
