Arlo Guthrie - Oklahoma Nights Lyrics
by Jimmy Webb Put the top down on this old Mustang Buy us a bottle of wine Head up north to see the old gang I want to see some friends of mine I want to see some friends of mine True loving people whose hearts are kind Find that little town that's in the back of my mind CHORUS: Oklahoma nights I will never forget you Oklahoma, the wind comes sweepin' Thru a sky full of lights While he's a singin' of an airless flight Put the lamp in a window, lead me back Lead me back to those Oklahoma nights Oklahoma nights When we get back to the old barn dance We'll hear that Rock-a-billy band Singin' about some long lost romance And we'll know we're home again Yes we'll know we're home again With Panhndle people who understand Dry a little tear from the back of my hand Oklahoma nights I will never forget you Oklahoma the wind comes sweepin' Thru a sky full of lights While he's singin' of an airless flight Put the lamp in a window mama, turn it up bright Lead me back to those Oklahoma nights Oklahoma nights Oklahoma nights
