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...
