Okie From Muskogee (Live In Muskogee, Oklahoma/1969) chords
Start Jamming...
[Eb]
We don't smoke marijuana in Muskogee.
We don't take our trips on [Bb] LSD.
We don't burn our draft cards down on Main Street.
We like living right, [F]
[Eb] being free.
We don't make a party out of loving.
We like holding hands and pitching [Bb] woo.
We don't let our hair grow long and shaggy,
like the hippies out in San Francisco [Eb] do.
I'm proud to be an Okie from Muskogee.
A place where even squares can have [Bb] a ball.
We still wave old flooring down at the pool house.
And white lightning's still the biggest thrill [Eb] of all.
[E]
Leather boots are still in style for manly footwear.
Feets in Roman sandals won't be [B] seen.
Football's still the roughest thing on campus.
And the kids here still respect [Gb] the college [E] dean.
All together, everybody!
I'm proud to be an Okie from Muskogee.
Thank you.
A place where even squares can have a [B] ball.
We still wave old flooring down at the courthouse, by golly.
And white lightning's still the biggest thrill [E]
of all.
[Bb]
[B] We still wave old flooring down at the courthouse.
[Gb] [B] In Muskogee, Oklahoma, [E] USA.
