(Roy Edward Burris, Merle Ronald Haggard)



We don't smoke Marijuana in Muskogee

We don't take no trips on LSD

We don't burn our draft cards down on Main Street

We like living right and being free.



We don't make a party out of loving

But we like holding hands and pitching woo.

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.

We still wave Old Glory down at the Courthouse

And White Lightning's still the biggest thrill of all.



Boots are still in style manly footwear,

Beads and roman sandals won't be seen.

Football's still the roughest thing on the Campus

And the kids there still respect the College Dean.



And I'm proud to be an Okie from Muskogee

I swear even squares can have a ball.

We still wave Old Glory down at the Courthouse

And White Lightning's still the biggest thrill of all,

And White Lightning's still the biggest thrill of all.
