Capo on 2nd
DWhen they opened up the strip I was Gyoung and full of Dzip,
I wanted some place to call my Ahome
And Dso I made the race, and I Gstaked me out a Dplace,
And I settled down Aalong the CimaDrron
It blowed aGway,(BLOWED AWAY!), it blowed aDway, (BLOWED AWAY!)
My Oklahoma home, it blowed aAway
It Dlooked so green and fair when I Gbuilt my shanty Dthere,
But my Oklahoma Ahome, it blowed aDway
I Dplanted wheat and oats, had some Gchickens and some Dshoats,
DAimed to have some ham and eggs to Afeed my face
Got a Dmule to pull the plow, got an Gold red muley Dcow
DAnd I also got a fancy Amortgage on the Dplace
It blowed aGway,(BLOWED AWAY!), it blowed aDway, (BLOWED AWAY!)
All the crops that I have planted blowed aAway
You Dcan't grow any grain if you Gain’t got anDy rain;
Everything except my Amortgage blowed aDway
It Dlooked so green and fair, when I Gbuilt my shanty Dthere,
I figured I was all set for Alife
I put Don my Sunday best with my Gfancy scalloped Dvest
And I went to town to Apick me out a Dwife
It blowed aGway,(BLOWED AWAY!), it blowed aDway, (BLOWED AWAY!)
My Oklahoma woman blowed aAway
Mister Das I bent and kissed her, she was Gpicked up by a Dtwister;
My Oklahoma Awoman blowed aDway
Then DI was left alone just a-Glistenin' to the Dmoan
‘thDe wind around the corners of mAy shack;
So I Dtook off down the road Gwhen the south wind Dblowed,
A-travelin' with the Awind upon my Dback
It blowed aGway,(BLOWED AWAY!), it blowed aDway, (BLOWED AWAY!)
Chasin' that dust cloud up aAhead
Once it Dlooked so green and fair, now Git's up there in the Dair;
My Oklahoma Afarm is over Dhead
Now I'm Dalways close to home it don’Gt matter where DI roam,
For Oklahoma dust is everyAwhere
Makes no Ddifference where I'm walkin', I can Ghear my chickens Dsquawkin'
I can hear my wife a-Atalkin' in the Dair
It blowed aGway,(BLOWED AWAY!), it blowed aDway, (BLOWED AWAY!)
My Oklahoma home blowed aAway
But my Dhome is always near; it's up Gin the atmosDphere,
My Oklahoma Ahome is blown aDway
I'm a Droamin' Oklahoman, but I'm Galways close to Dhome
And I'll never get homesick until I Adie
Cause no Dmatter where I'm found, my Ghome is all aDround;
My Oklahoma Ahome is in the Dsky
It blowed aGway,(BLOWED AWAY!), it blowed aDway, (BLOWED AWAY!)
My farm down on the CimarAron
But Dall around the world, wherGever dust is Dswirled,
There’s some from mAy OklahomDa home
It blowed aGway,(BLOWED AWAY!), it blowed aDway, (BLOWED AWAY!)
My Oklahoma home is blown aAway
Yeah it's Dup there in the sky in that Gdust cloud over n??D? by,
My Oklahoma Ahome is in the Dsky
My Oklahoma Ahome is in the Dsky
