Artist/Band: Conway Twitty
Lyrics for Song: Okie from Muskogee
Lyrics for Album: 40 Great Hits [Platinum Disc] [2003]



(Merle Haggard - Eddie Burris)



We don't smoke marijuana in Muskogee

And 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 loving

But we like holding hands and pitching woo

And 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

And we still wave Ol' Glory down at the courthouse

And white lightning's still the biggest thrill of all.



--- Instrumental ---



Cowboy boots are still in style for manly footwear

Beads and Roman sandals won't be seen

And football's still the roughest thing on campus

And the kids here still respect the college dean.



And I'm proud to be an Okie from Muskogee

A place where even squares can have a ball

And we still wave Ol' Glory down at the courthouse

And white lightning's still the biggest thrill of all.



In Muskogee Oklahoma U.S.A...
