"Oklahoma U.S.A." lyrics
"Oklahoma U.S.A."
All life we work but work is a bore
If life's for livin', what's livin' for?
She lives in a house that's near decay
Built for the industrial revolution
But in her dreams she is far away
In Oklahoma, U.S.A.
With Shirley Jones and Gordon MacRae
While she buys her papers at the corner shop
She's walking on the surrey with the fringe on top
Cause in her dreams she is far away
In Oklahoma, U.S.A.
She walks to work but she's still in a daze
She's Rita Hayworth or Doris Day
And Errol Flynn's gonna take her away
To Oklahoma, U.S.A.
All life we work but work is a bore
If life's for livin', then what's livin' for?

It's got everything
Like a driving power
Big fat...

Take it logically
I'd like to help you in your struggle
To be free
There must be fifty ways
To leave your lover"
