STATE CHILDREN'S SONG -

"Oklahoma, My Native Land"
by Martha Kemm Barrett
§25-94.5.

As I travel the roads of America, such wonderful sights I can see.
But nothing compares to the place I love;
The perfect home for you and for me.

Yes, Oklahoma, my native land.
I am proud to say your future's looking grand.
Yes, Oklahoma, such history.
Ev'ry day you give a gift just for me.

I see a Scissortail Flycatcher cut through the clean air
As mistletoe kisses the branches ev'rywhere.
Redbuds open ev'ry single spring.
I hear a Pow Wow beat the rhythm of the old ways
As oil wells pump back mem'ries of the boom days.
Only Oklahoma has these things.

Yes, Oklahoma, my native land.
I am proud to say your future's looking grand.
Yes, Oklahoma, such history.
Ev'ry day you give a gift just for me.

Perfect home for you. The perfect home for me.
It's only Oklahoma for me.
