Many a years has 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 I have learned; Well, I feel like in those hills I belong.
'Way down yonder in the Indian Nation Ridin' my pony on the reservation, In those Oklahoma hills where I was Now, 'way down yonder in Indian Nation, A cowboy's life is my occupation, In those Oklahoma hills where I was born.
But as I sit here Many miles I am away From 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 I turn life a page To land of the great Osage In those Oklahoma hills where I was born, While the black oil it rolls and And the snow-white cotton grows In those Oklahoma hills where I was born.
