[Intro]
A D
[Verse]
D
We don't smoke marijuana in Muskogee;
D A
We don't take no trips on LSD
A
We don't burn no draft cards down on Main Street;
A D
We like livin' right, and bein' free.
[Verse]
D
We don't make a party out of lovin'
D A
But we like holdin' hands and pitchin' woo
A
We don't let our hair grow long and shaggy
A D
Like the hippies out in San Francisco do
[Chorus]
D D
I'm proud to be an Okie from Muskogee,
D A
A place where even squares can have a ball
A A
We still wave Old Glory down at the courthouse,
A D
And white lightnin's still the biggest thrill of all
[Verse]
Eb
Leather boots are still in style for manly footwear;
Eb Bb
Beads and Roman sandals won't be seen.
Bb
Football's still the roughest thing on campus,
Bb Eb
And the kids here still respect the college dean.
[Chorus]
Eb Eb
And I'm proud to be an Okie from Muskogee,
Eb Bb
A place where even squares can have a ball.
Bb Bb
We still wave Old Glory down at the courthouse,
Bb Eb
And white lightnin's still the biggest thrill of all.
[Outro]
Bb Eb
And white lightnin's still the biggest thrill of all.
Bb Eb
In Muskogee, Oklahoma, USA.
