Lyrics:
- We don't smoke marijuana in Muskogee;
- We don't take no trips on LSD
- We don't burn no draft cards down on Main Street;
- We like livin' right, and bein' free.
- 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 lightnin's still the biggest thrill of all
- We don't make a party out of lovin';
- We like holdin' hands and pitchin' 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 lightnin's still the biggest thrill of all.
- Leather boots are still in style for manly footwear;
- Beads and Roman sandals won't be seen.
- Football's still the roughest thing on campus,
- And the kids here still respect the college dean.
- We still wave Old Glory down at the courthouse,
- In Muskogee, Oklahoma, USA.
