The Tulsa Shuffle

All across the south... They've got the boogie bands that sound so fine On both coasts they've got the record company machines Turnin' out hits on an assembly line But in the heart of America... we've got the beat That's guaranteed to tap your toes Oklahoma's got the Tulsa shuffle... And this am the way it goes... Up north in Chicago... You('ve) got your authentic blues bands And way down yonder in New Orleans... They got a thing they call Dixieland All around this whole wide world... There's one thing that everybody knows All God's children love the Tulsa shuffle... And this am the way it goes... I love England--I love the Beatles The who and the rolling stones I love Nashville country and Texas Tex-Mex And Cajun and Motown soul But in the heart of America... we got the beat That's guaranteed to tap your toes Oklahoma's got the Tulsa shuffle And this am the way it goes...
