Thread Name: Lyr Req: Oklahoma Hills (Jack & Woody Guthrie)
Subject: Lyr Add: OKLAHOMA HILLS (Woody Guthrie)
OKLAHOMA HILLS(words and music by Woodrow Wilson Guthrie) Elton Britt's themesong.
Many a month has come and gone since I wandered from my home
In the Oklahoma hills where I was born
Many a page of life has turned, many lessons I have learned
In those Oklahoma hills where I was born
(Chorus)
A-Way down yonder in the Indian Nations
I ride my pony on a reservation
In the Oklahoma Hills where I was born
A-Way down yonder in the Indian Nations
A cowboy's life is my occupation
In the Oklahoma Hills where I was born.
Now as I turn back each page to the land of the great Osage
In those dear old Okie hills where I was born
Where the Oak and blackjack trees
Kiss the playful tumbleweeds
It's where I want to be, where I belong
(repeat chorus)
regards
Jody Gibson
