Lyrics Oklahoma - Hugh Jackman, Maureen Lipman, David Shelmerdine

Oklahoma

They couldn’t pick a better time to start in life!
It ain’t too early and it ain’t too late.
Startin' as a farmer with a brand new wife
Soon be living in a brand new state!
Brand new state.
Gonna treat you great!
Gonna give you barley
Carrots and pertaters
Pasture for the cattle
Spinach and termayters!
Flowers on the prairie where the June bugs zoom
Plen’y of air and plen’y of room
Plen’y of room to swing a rope!
Plen’y of heart and plen’y of hope!
O -k-
lahoma, where the wind comes sweepin' down the plain,
And the wavin' wheat
Can sure smell sweet,
When the wind comes right behind the rain
O -k-
lahoma, ev’ry night my honey lamb and I
Sit alone and talk
And watch a hawk makin' lazy circles in the sky
We know we belong to the land
And the land we belong to is grand!
And when we say
Yeow!
We’re only sayin'
You’re doin' fine Oklahoma!
Oklahoma!
OK
O -k-
lahoma, where the wind comes sweepin' down the plain
Oklahoma!
Where the wavin' wheat
Can sure smell sweet,
When the wind comes right behind the rain
O -k-
lahoma, ev’ry night my honey lamb and I,
Ev’ry night
We sit alone and talk
and watch a hawk
Making lazy circles in the sky
We know we belong to the land
And the land we belong to is grand
Yippy-yi!
Yippy-yi!
Yippy-yi!
Yippy-yi!
Yippy-yi!
Yippy-yi!
And when we say
We’re only sayin'
You’re doin' fine Oklahoma!
Oklahoma, OK
Okla — homa
Okla — homa
Okla — homa
Okla — homa
We know we belong to the land
And the land we belong to is grand
And when we say
We’re only sayin'
You’re doin' fine Oklahoma!
Oklahoma,
Oklahoma!
Yeow!
