Okie From Muskogee - Live At The Philadelphia Civic Center/1970

Lyrics

We don't smoke marijuana in Muskogee
 We don't take our trips on LSD
 We don't burn our draft cards down on the Main Street
 We like livin' right, and bein' free
 We don't make a party out of lovin'
 We like holdin' hands and pitchin' woo, ooh!
 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, hey!
 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
 All together everybody
 And I'm proud to be an Okie from Muskogee, thank you
 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 still wave Old Glory down at the courthouse
 In Muskogee, Oklahoma, U.S.A.
 ♪
 Thank you
 Here is-
 Thank you so much
 Here is a brand new record
 That's much on the same thought
 We hope you like it like you did Muskogee
 And maybe covers even little wider area
 Talks about the flag again and
 I remember Tommy Collins told me yesterday that
 If he would have dropped the flag when he was holding the flag in school
 So they would lost their right to recess, and I hope that's all we lose, our right to recess
