Wake up in Oklahoma where the chilly wind still blows
Wake me up in Oklahoma to the only love I know
Five long years since I`ve been home now that the old place looks the same
Barbara wrote me every Sunday always says the same old things
Your daddy`s fine and we both love you don`t be drinking all the time
You be good and come to see us don`t forget to write sometime
Wake up in Oklahoma...
Ain`t no love in that old city couldn`t find my road to fame
Pretty girls in there so precious only brought me tears and shame
Mama said my baby waited knew that I`d return some day
You can find me home tomorrow smiling through my tears stained face
Wake up in Oklahoma...
Wake up in Oklahoma...
