[Verse 1]
We don't smoke
marijuana in
Muskogee;
We don't take
our trips on L
SD
We don't burn
our draft card
s down on Main
Street;
We like livin'
right, and be
in' free.
[Chorus]
I'm proud to b
e an Oakie fro
m Muskogee,
A place where
even squares c
an have a ball
----
We still wave
Old Glory down
at the courth
ouse,
And white ligh
tin's still th
e biggest thri
l of all
[Verse 2]
We don't make a party out of lovin';
We like holdin' hands and pitchin' woo;
We don't let our hair grow long and shaggy,
Like the hippies out in San Francisco do.
[Chorus]
I'm proud to b
e an Oakie fro
m Muskogee,
A place where
even squares c
an have a ball
----
We still wave
Old Glory down
at the courth
ouse,
And white ligh
tin's still th
e biggest thri
l of all
[Verse 3]
Leather boots are still in style for mainly footwear;
Beads and roman sandals won't be seen.
Football's still the roughest thing on campus,
And the kids here still respect the college dean.
[Chorus]
I'm proud to b
e an Oakie fro
m Muskogee,
A place where
even squares c
an have a ball
----
We still wave
Old Glory down
at the courth
ouse,
And white ligh
tin's still th
e biggest thri
l of all
[Outro]
We still wave Old Glory down at the courthouse,
In Muskogee, Oklahoma, USA.
