Okie from Muskogee (feat. Hank Williams III & Henry Bogdan) (Merle Haggard cover) Lyrics

We don't smoke marijuana in Muskogee
and we don't take our trips on LSD
we don't burn no draft cards down on Main Street
we like livin' right and bein' free

We don't make no 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

And I'm proud to be an Okie from Muskogee
a place where even squares can have a ball
we still wave Old Glory down at the courthouse
and white lightnin's still the biggest thrill of all

Leather boots are still in style for manly footwear
beads and Roman sandals won't be seen
and football's still the roughest thing on campus
and the kids there still respect the college dean

And I'm proud to be an Okie from Muskogee
a place where even squares can have a ball
we still wave Old Glory down at the courthouse
and white lightnin's still the biggest thrill of all

And white lightnin's still the biggest thrill of all
in Muskogee, Oklahoma, USA
