Ertist: Merle Haggard Song: Okie From Muskogee [Intro] A D [Verse 1]
   D
We don't smoke marijuana in Muskogee;

  D                         A
We don't take no trips on LSD

   A                                              
We don't burn no draft cards down on Main Street;

 A                               D
We like livin' right, and bein' free.
[Verse 2]
 D      
We don't make a party out of lovin'

  D                                     A
But we like holdin' hands and pitchin' woo

 A                           
We don't let our hair grow long and shaggy

  A                                    D
Like the hippies out in San Francisco do
[Chorus]
 D                              D
I'm proud to be an Okie from Muskogee,

    D                                   A
A place where even squares can have a ball

   A                                   A
We still wave Old Glory down at the courthouse,

     A                                            D
And white lightnin's still the biggest thrill of all
[Verse 3]
  Eb
Leather boots are still in style for manly footwear;

 Eb                               Bb
Beads and Roman sandals won't be seen.

 Bb
Football's still the roughest thing on campus,

 Bb                                           Eb
And the kids here still respect the college dean.
[Chorus]
  Eb                                Eb
And I'm proud to be an Okie from Muskogee,

    Eb                                 Bb
A place where even squares can have a ball.

 Bb                                     Bb
We still wave Old Glory down at the courthouse,

  Bb                                              Eb
And white lightnin's still the biggest thrill of all.
[Outro]
  Bb                                              Eb
And white lightnin's still the biggest thrill of all.

    Bb                  Eb
In Muskogee, Oklahoma, USA.
