Oklahoma - Oscar Hammerstein
They couldn't pick a better time to start in life! It ain't too early and it ain't too late Startin as a farmer with a brand new wife Soon be liv-in in a brand new state! Brand new state Gonna treat you great! Gonna give you barley, carrots and per-taters Pasture for the cattle Spinach and ter-may-ters Flowers on the prairie where the June bugs zoom! Plen'y of ao air and plen'y of room Plenty o' room to swing a rope Plen'y of heart and plen'y of hope! Oklahoma where the wind comes sweeping down the plain And the wavin' wheat can sure smell sweet When the wind comes right behind the rain Oklahoma ev'ry night my honey lamb and I Sit alone and talk, and watch a hawk Makin lazy circles in the sky We know we belong to the land And the land we belong to is grand And when we say Yeow! A-YIP-I-O-EE-AY We're only sayin "You're doing fine Oklahoma!" Oklahoma, OK Oklahoma where the wind comes sweeping down the plain, Oklahoma Where the wav-in wheat can sure smell sweet When the wind comes right behind the rain Oklahoma ev'ry night my honey lamb and I (Every night!) We sit alone and talk and watch a hawk Makin lazy circles in the sky We know we belong to the land And the land we belong to is grand Yippi-i Yippi-i Yippi-i Yippi-i Yippi-i Yippi-i And when we say Yeow! A-YIP-I-O-EE-AY Were only say-in "you're doing fine Oklahoma Oklahoma your OK" Okla-homa Okla-homa Okla-homa Okla-homa Okla-homa Okla- We know we belong to the land And the land we belong to is grand And when we say Yeow! A-YIP-I-O-EE-AY Were only say-in "you're doing fine Oklahoma, Oklahoma" O-k-L-A-H-O-M-A Oklahoma! Yeow!
