lyrics

I’ve never been to Oklahoma
But I’d sure like to go, with you sometime
Drive beneath, those open skies
across the endless plains

Just like the Becher’s
Stopping at every
Abandoned grain elevator
Just to hear the wind

Whooshing across the fields
Into every broken wall
New place to hide
Where we could kiss

Don’t know a soul
Within 500 miles
We’d simply be lost
And running

Down that lonesome road
Like we knew every crack
In every white line
Along the edge, of every highway

Been down them all before
All the same roads
Leading us away, from everything
We’ve ever known

Well baby, I’ve never been to Oklahoma
But I’d sure like to go, with you sometime
Drive beneath, those open skies
across the endless plains

Until we hit the mountains
And found a place to rest
In the shade
Beneath a gnarled tree

Where we could look back
On all the emptiness
We’ve left behind
And enjoy the beauty of the day

So baby, I’ve never been to Oklahoma
And I’d sure like to go, with you sometime
Drive beneath, those wide open skies
Across the endless plains
