A place where even squares can have a ball
Like the hippies out in San Francisco do
And white lightnin's still the biggest thrill of all
We still wave Old Glory down at the courthouse
And I'm proud to be an Okie from Muskogee
We don't make a party out of lovin'
A place where even squares can have a ball
But we like holdin' hands and pitchin' woo
We don't smoke marijuana in Muskogee
We don't take our trips on LSD
And 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
We don't burn our draft cards down on Main Street
And football's still the roughest thing on campus
'Cause we like livin' right and bein' free

In Muskogee, Oklahoma, U.S.A.
And I'm proud to be an Okie from Muskogee
We don't let our hair grow long and shaggy
We still wave Old Glory down at the courthouse
And white lightnin's still the biggest thrill of all
And the kids here still respect the college dean
