Oklahoma Hills Lyrics - Arlo Guthrie

Many a month has come and gone 

Since I've wandered from my home 

In those Oklahoma hills where I was born 

Many a page of my life has turned 

Many lessons I have learned 

And I feel like in those hills where I belong 

Way down yonder in the Indian nation 

Riding my pony on the reservation 

In the Oklahoma hills where I was born 

Way down yonder in the Indian nation 

A cowboy's life is my occupation 

In the Oklahoma Hills where I was born 

But as I sit here today 

Many miles I am away 

From the place I rode my pony through the draw 

Where the oak and black jack trees 

Kiss the playful Prairie breeze 

And I feel back in those hills where I belong 

Way down yonder in the Indian nation 

Riding my pony on the reservation 

In the Oklahoma hills where I was born 

Way down yonder in the Indian nation 

A cowboy's life is my occupation 

In the 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 

Where the black oil rolls and flows 

And the snow white cotton grows 

And I feel like in those hills where I belong 

Way down yonder in the Indian nation 

Riding my pony on the reservation 

In the Oklahoma hills where I was born 

Way down yonder in the Indian nation 

A cowboy's life is my occupation 

In the Oklahoma Hills where I was born
