Many a month has come and gone Since i wandered from my home In those oklahoma hills where i was born. Many a page of life has turned, Many a lesson i have learned; Well, i feel like in those hills i still belong. 'way down yonder in the indian nation Ridin' my pony on the reservation, In those oklahoma hills where i was born. Now, 'way down yonder in the indian nation, A cowboy's life is my occupation, In those oklahoma hills where i was born. But as i sit here today, Many miles i am away From a place i rode my pony through the draw, While the oak and blackjack trees Kiss the playful prairie breeze, In those oklahoma hills where i was born. Now as i turn life a page To the land of the great osage In those oklahoma hills where i was born, While the black oil it rolls and flows And the snow-white cotton grows In those oklahoma hills where i was born.
