Oklahoma Blues

You know, once in a while I get a really nostalgic feeling for my home territory, Oklahoma But that's because I have to be away from it so much Well, Jack Rael wrapped up some of that feeling in a song And I'd like to sing it for you now When you took me to the city, bought me clothes and things You took me to the city, bought me diamond rings But I forgot to tell you, your queenie don't like these Goin' back to Oklahoma, back to my old hometown Yes, back to Oklahoma, back to my old playground Where folks all take it easy and never race around Got a house, and an auto, got a dog and baby chick Eleven in my family Don't need you to get my kick Goin' back to Oklahoma, back to my hometown Where folks all take it easy, and never race around Cincinnati and Milwaukee, every time we had a date Once in New York City, you were two weeks six days late That's all baby, baby, that's all for now Goin' back to Oklahoma, where folk don't race around Well alright baby, well alright you were wrong Goin' back to Oklahoma, see you and so long I'm gonna take it easy, and never race around
