Lyrics Oklahoma - Bishop Allen

Oklahoma

I was found out in the rushes
Like a can of paint and old paintbrushes
Like a ribbon wrapped around an old latch key
Wicknor-Whatnot that’s what you call me
I was sleeping on your patio
Listening to your brand new radio
When you startled me awake
I’m a man — I insist you insist on a piece of cake
Uh oh, Uh ooh-ah oh, Uh ooh-ah oh, Uh ooh-ah oh
Uh oh, Uh ooh-ah oh, Uh ooh-ah oh, Uh ooh-ah oh
Uh oh, Uh ooh-ah oh, Uh ooh-ah oh, Uh ooh-ah oh
Way out west
Stake that claim
And forget everybody else’s name
I can’t say
Knew you well
Lets pretend so we can begin again
You’ve got eyes like Oklahoma
Learned to swim in Lake Texoma
Chances are you plan to leave too soon
Oklahoma that’s what Ill call you!
When you’re left with nowhere else to go
Try and get me on my telephone
And you’ll find I threw it in a lake
You’re a man — You insist I insist on a piece of cake
Uh oh, Uh ooh-ah oh, Uh ooh-ah oh, Uh ooh-ah oh
Uh oh, Uh ooh-ah oh, Uh ooh-ah oh, Uh ooh-ah oh
Uh oh, Uh ooh-ah oh, Uh ooh-ah oh, Uh ooh-ah oh
