We don’t smoke marijuana in Muskogee<\/span>
\nWe don’t take our trips on LSD<\/span>
\nWe don’t burn our draft cards down on Main Street<\/span>
\nWe like livin’ right, and bein’ free<\/span><\/p>\n

We don’t make a party out of lovin’<\/span>
\nWe like holdin’ hands and pitchin’ woo<\/span>
\nWe don’t let our hair grow long and shaggy<\/span>
\nLike the hippies out in San Francisco do<\/span><\/p>\n

I’m proud to be an Okie from Muskogee,<\/span>
\nA place where even squares can have a ball<\/span>
\nWe still wave Old Glory down at the courthouse,<\/span>
\nAnd white lightnin’s still the biggest thrill of all<\/span><\/p>\n

Leather boots are still in style for manly footwear<\/span>
\nBeads and Roman sandals won’t be seen<\/span>
\nFootball’s still the roughest thing on campus<\/span>
\nAnd the kids here still respect the college dean<\/span><\/p>\n

And I’m proud to be an Okie from Muskogee<\/span>
\nA place where even squares can have a ball.<\/span>
\nWe still wave Old Glory down at the courthouse<\/span>
\nAnd white lightnin’s still the biggest thrill of all<\/span><\/p>\n

And white lightnin’s still the biggest thrill of all<\/span>
\nIn Muskogee, Oklahoma, USA.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
