Lyrics

We don't smoke marijuana in Muskogee We don't take our trips on LSD We don't burn our draft cards down on main street 'Cause we like living right and being free We don't make a party out of lovin' But we like holding hands and pitching 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 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 Football's still the roughest thing on campus And the kids 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 White lightnin's still the biggest thrill of all
