Lyrics
I grew up in Oklahoma
between the hillside and the valley
My daddy drove his old green truck
straight down tornado alley
We lost him in the wind one night
But morning came and we were all alright
God blessed our fate in this fair state
Where no one ever says goodbye
In Oklahoma, where a stranger still shakes your hand
In Oklahoma, where the red dirt rules our land
Yea, we?ve had our trail of tears
Broken hearts and busted years
Still Oklahoma, that?s my home
And I?m staying here, I?m staying here
From Tulsa down to old bricktown
to the plains wide open spaces
we?ve been hit so hard, we?ve come so far
but we?re the land of smiling faces
When the chips are down, there aint no doubt
Yea we?re the first one?s in, and the last one?s out
That just happens to be what we?re all about
We got heart, maybe too much heart
Here in Oklahoma, where a stranger still shakes your hand
In Oklahoma, where the red dirt rules our land
Yea, we?ve had our trail of tears
Broken hearts and busted years
Still Oklahoma, that?s my home, that?s my home
Yea In Oklahoma, where a stranger still shakes your hand
Yea In Oklahoma, where everybody understands
Yea we?ve had our trail of tears
But the sweetest dreams come true right here
Still Oklahoma, that?s my home
And I?m staying here, I?m staying here, I?m staying here, I?m staying here
