[N] [A] [D]
We don't smoke marijuana in Muskogee
We don't take our trips on [A] LSD
We don't burn our draft cards down on Main Street
Cause we like living right and [D] being free
We don't make a party out of loving
But we like holding hands and [A] pitching woo
We don't let our hair grow long and shaggy
Like the hippies out in San [D] Francisco do
And I'm proud to be an Okie from Muskogee
A place where even squares can [A] have a ball
We still wave old glory down at the courthouse
And white lightning's still the biggest [D] thrill of all
[Bb] [Eb] Leather boots are still in style for manly footwear
Beads and roman sandals [Bb] won't be seen
And football's still the roughest thing on campus
And the kids here still respect the [Eb] college dean
And I'm proud to be an Okie from Muskogee
A place where even squares can [Bb] have a ball
We still wave old glory down at the courthouse
And white lightning's still the biggest [Eb] thrill of all
[Bb] And white lightning's still the biggest [Eb] thrill of all
