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 sweetWhen the wind comes right behind the rain.Oklahoma, ev'ry night my honey lamb and ISit alone and talk and watch a hawk makin' lazy circles in the sky.We know we belong to the landAnd the land we belong to is grand!And when we say--Yeeow!
