Lyrics:

When they opened up the strip

I was young and full of zip

I wanted someplace to call my home

And so I made the race

And I staked me out a place

And I settled down along the Cimarron

It blowed away

It blowed away

My Oklahoma home it blown away

Well it looked so green and fair

When I built my shanty there

Now my Oklahoma home is blown away

Well I planted wheats and oats

Got some chickens and some shoats

Aimed to have some ham and eggs to feed my face

Got a mule to pull the plow

Got an old red muley cow

And I also got a fancy mortgage on this place

Well it blowed away

It blowed away

All the crops that I've planted blown away

Well you can't grow any grain

It you ain't got any rain

Everything except my mortgage blown away

Well it looked so green and fair

When I built my shanty there

I figured I was all set for life

I put on my Sunday best, with my fancy scalloped vest

And I went to town to pick me out a wife

She blowed away

She blowed away

My Oklahoma woman blowed away

Mister as I bent to kiss her

She was picked up by a twister

My Oklahoma woman blown away

Well then I was left alone just listenin' to the moan

Of wind around the corners of my shack

So I took off down the road yeah

When the south wind blowed

I traveled with the wind upon my back

I blowed away

I blowed away

Chasin' that dust cloud up ahead

Once it looked so green and fair

Now it' up in the air

My Oklahoma farm is over head.

Well now I'm always close to home it blown away

But my home Sir, is always near

It's up in the atmosphere

My Oklahoma home is blown away

Well I'm roam'n Oklahoman

But I'm always close to home

I'll never get homesick until I die

'Cause no matter where I'm found

My home's all arraound

My Oklahoma home is in the sky

It blowed away

It blowed away

My farm down on Cimarron

Now all around the world

Where ever dust is swirled

There is some from my Oklahoma home

Oh and it's blown away

It's blown away

Oh my Oklahoma home is blown away

Yeah, it's up there in the sky

In that dust cloud over n' by

My Oklahoma home is in the sky
