Version 1 Version 2 Version 4Artist: Merle Haggard Song: Oakie From Muskogee Verse 1: D We don't smoke marijuana in Muskogee A We don't take our trips on LSD We don't burn our draft cards down on Main Street D We like living right, and being free Verse 2: D We don't make a party out of lovin' A We like holdin' hands and pitchin' woo We don't let our hair grow long and shaggy D Like the hippies out in San Francisco do Chorus: D I'm proud to be an Okie from Muskogee A A place where even squares can have a ball We still wave Old Glory down at the courthouse D And white lightning's still the biggest thrill of all Verse 3: D# Leather boots are still in style for manly footwear A# Beads and Roman sandals won't be seen Football's still the roughest thing on campus D# And the kids here still respect the college dean Chorus: D# I'm proud to be an Okie from Muskogee A# A place where even squares can have a ball We still wave Old Glory down at the courthouse D# And white lightning's still the biggest thrill of all A# D# And white lightning's still the biggest thrill of all A# D# In Muskogee, Oklahoma, USA
