Oklahoma Song
Listen to the Oakie playin the piano Pickin an a grinnin An a singin his song Don't it make you wanna dance now Don't it make you wanna sing Lah dah dee dee dah dee oh Red River water runnin deep in my blood If the Good Lord's willin Then the creaks don't rise And it makes me want to laugh now And it makes me want to cry Happy for my childhood Oaklahoma Song With guitars strummin And banjos pickin And listen to the old time fiddler's moan Summertime nights are on my mind And I wonder how the old folks are Back home.....sweet home Well I gues I must have been seventeen When I left my home, sweet home SongtexteI spent a lotta time aroun da people scene An I spent some time alone I've been a rich have and a poor have not I gave what I could and I got back a lot And I loved it.....yes loved it, mmmmm I wouldn't take a minute from a single day And I can't change the meaning Of the words I said And when I don't like it Well I just try to leave it alone Listen to the Oakie playin the piano Pickin an a grinnin An a singin his song Don't it make you wanna dance now Don't it make you wanna sing (Thanks to Bruce Burton for these lyrics) Aus Songtexte Mania
