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 livin' in a brand new state Brand new state! Gonna treat you great! Gonna give you barley, carrots and pertaters Pasture fer the cattle Spinach and termayters Flowers on the prarie where the June bugs zoom Plenty of air and plenty of room Plenty o' room to swing a rope! Plenty of heart and plenty 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-e-ay We're only sayin' You're doin' fine, Oklahoma Oklahoma, O.K Oklahoma, where the wind comes sweepin' down the plain Oklahama, where the wavin' 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 (Sky) We know we belong to the land (Yoho) And the land we belong to is grand Yip-i-yi, Yip-i-yi, Yip-i-yi, Yip-i-yi, Yip-i-yi, Yip-i-yi And when we say Yeeow A-yip-i-o-e-ay We're only sayin' You're doin' fine, Oklahoma Oklahoma, you're okay Okla-homa-Okla-homa-Okla-homa Okla-homa-Okla-homa-Okla-homa We know we belong to the land And the land we belong to is grand And when we say Yeeow A-yip-i-o-e-ay We're only sayin' You're doin' fine, Oklahoma Oklahoma, O-K-L-A-H-O-M-A Oklahoma Yeeow
