Bài hát My Oklahoma Home Báo Lỗi

When they opened up the strip I was young and full of zip

I wanted a place to call my own

And so I made the race, and staked me out a place

And settled down along the Cimarron


It blowed away, it blowed away

My Oklahoma home, it blowed away

It looked so green and fair when I built my shanty there

But my Oklahoma home, it blowed away


I planted wheat and oats, got some chickens and some shoats

Aimed to have some ham and eggs to feed my face

Got a mule to pull the plow, got an old red muley cow

And got a fancy mortgage on the place


It blowed away, it blowed away

All the crops I planted blowed away

You can't grow any grain if there isn't any rain

All except the mortgage blowed away


It blowed away my rooster and it blowed away my hens

The pigs and cattle went astray

All the crops that I sowed went a-foggin' down the road

My Oklahoma farm, it blowed away


It blowed away, it blowed away

Everything I owned blowed away

I hollered and I cussed when my land went up in dust

When my Oklahoma farm, it blowed away


It looked so green and fair, when I built my shanty there

I figured I was all set for life

I put on my Sunday best with my fancy scalloped vest

And went to town and picked me out a wife


She blowed away, she blowed away

My Oklahoma woman blowed away

Just as I bent and kissed her, she was picked up by a twister

My Oklahoma woman blowed away


Then I was left alone a-listenin' to the moan

Of the wind around the corners of my shack

So, I took off down the road when the south wind blowed

A-travelin' with the wind at my back


I blowed away, I blowed away

Chasin' a dust cloud up ahead

Once it looked so green and fair, now it's up there in the air

My Oklahoma farm is overhead


Now I'm always close to home no matter where I roam

For Oklahoma dust is everywhere

Makes no difference where I'm walkin'

I can hear my chickens squawkin'

I can hear my wife a-talkin' in the air


It blowed away, it blowed away

My Oklahoma home blowed away

But my home is always near; it's in the atmosphere

My Oklahoma home that blowed away


I'm a roamin' Oklahoman, but I'm always close to home

And I'll never get homesick 'til I die

No matter where I'm found, my home is all around

My Oklahoma home is in the sky


It blowed away, it blowed away

My farm down upon the Cimarron

But all around the world, wherever dust is whirled

Some is from my Oklahoma home


It blowed away, it blowed away

My Oklahoma home blowed away

Oh, it's up there in the sky in that dust cloud rolling by

My Oklahoma home is in the sky
