Lyrics Merle Haggard – The Okie From Muskogee’s Comin’ Home

Well, me and Roy Nichols
And couple other fellows in the band
Got to talking it over
Thought we’d take off a little time if we can

I don’t mean to say I’m quitting
I’m just tired of making love to a telephone
I’m coming home if I can find me a flight this morning, man
The Okie from Muskogee’s coming home

Well, it’s been twenty years of traveling
Twenty years of living out on the road
Learning this chorus and learning these songs
And paying up all these dues they said I owe

Now I may always be a rambler
And never lose the urge to roam
I’m coming home if I can find me a flight this morning, man
The Okie from Muskogee’s coming home
