Lyrics
- Brand new state! Brand new state, gonna treat you great!
- Gonna give you barley, carrots and pertaters,
- Pasture fer the cattle, Spinach and Temayters!
- Flowers on the prarie where the June bugs zoom,
- Plen'y of air and plen'y of room,
- Plen'y of room to swing a rope!
- Plen'y of heart and plen'y of hope.
- Oklahoma, where the wind comes sweepin' down the plain,
- And the wavin' 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--Yeeow! A-yip-i-o-ee ay!
- We're only sayin' You're doin' fine, Oklahoma! Oklahoma--O.K.
