[Intro] (banjo roll and fiddle kick) [Verse 1] We crossed the line where the Red River bends Daddy said, “Girl, this is where the long road begins” Will Rogers grinning from a Claremore sign And the hills of Oklahoma looking just like mine Tulsa lights were winking like a Saturday night Oil-town gold in the rearview light [Chorus] It’s Oklahoma with Daddy Windows down, radio loud Banjo in my heartbeat Fiddle in the clouds From the Blue Whale waving To that big old Pops in the sky It’s Oklahoma with Daddy And I don’t wanna say goodbye [Verse 2] We rolled that Mother Road, old Route 66 Round Barn turning like a story it still tells Arcadia soda bottle standing ten stories tall Daddy laughed, “They don’t build dreams that small” Oklahoma City capitol shining in the sun He said a land-run heart don’t ever come undone [Chorus] It’s Oklahoma with Daddy Windows down, radio loud Banjo in my heartbeat Fiddle in the clouds From the Blue Whale waving To that big old Pops in the sky It’s Oklahoma with Daddy And I don’t wanna say goodbye [Bridge] Tallgrass waving like a preacher in the wind Wichita Mountains blue around the bend He hummed an old hymn only he would know And every mile felt like coming home [Final Chorus] It’s Oklahoma with Daddy Windows down, radio loud Banjo in my heartbeat Fiddle in the clouds If the road keeps turning Lord, let this one stay It’s Oklahoma with Daddy All the way [Outro] (fiddle and banjo stomp) All the way… All the way…
