Oklahoma, My Native Land

Words and Music by Martha Kemm Barrett
Adopted March 27, 1996

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'slooking 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.
