Oklahoma Lyrics - Singles - Stephen Hunley

She grew up where the land is flat 

Where the wind blows strong but never at her back 

Seventeen when her mama died 

She said the hardest thing was saying goodbye 

And she cried Oklahoma 

So much more we could have done 

Oklahoma 

You let her die here way too young 

She was way too young 

A leap of faith took her to Tennessee 

Where she met a boy who looked like me 

She fell in love while he played the part 

Then he broke her will just to break her heart 

And she cried Oklahoma 

So much more we could have done 

Oklahoma 

You let our love die way too young 

Ooh, we were way too young 

She waited around 

Hoping he would figure it out 

Hoping he would see he was wrong 

But he took too long 

And then the moment was gone 

So late one night she decided to leave 

Said she'd had enough of the hills in Tennessee 

Headed home where the land is flat 

With a gentle breeze steady at her back 

Ooh, and she cried Oklahoma 

So much still that's left undone 

Oklahoma 

Don't know why I left so young 

But I was way too young 

Ah hoo 

Ah hoo 

Ah hoo, ah hoo
