Okie From Muskogee - Merle Haggard [Verse 1] C We don't smoke marijuana in Muskogee; G We don't take our trips on LSD G We don't burn our draft cards down on Main Street; C We like livin' right, and bein' free. |[Chorus] |C | I'm proud to be an Oakie from Muskogee, | G |A place where even squares can have a ball ---- |G | We still wave Old Glory down at the courthouse, | C |And white lightin's still the biggest thril of all [Verse 2] C We don't make a party out of lovin'; G We like holdin' hands and pitchin' woo; G We don't let our hair grow long and shaggy, C Like the hippies out in San Francisco do. [Chorus] [Verse 3] C Leather boots are still in style for mainly footwear; Beads and roman sandals won't be seen.[G] G Football's still the roughest thing on campus, And the kids here still respect the college [C] dean. |[Chorus] |C | I'm proud to be an Oakie from Muskogee, | G |A place where even squares can have a ball ---- |G | We still wave Old Glory down at the courthouse, | C |And white lightin's still the biggest thril of all [Outro] G We still wave Old Glory down at the courthouse, In Muskogee, Oklahoma, [C] USA.
