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 life has turned Many a lesson I have learned Well, I feel like in those hills I still belong
Chorus: (Now) Way down yonder in the Indian nation Ridin’ my pony on the reservation In those Oklahoma Hills where I was born (Oh) (Now) way down yonder in the Indian nation A cowboy’s life is my occupation In those Oklahoma Hills where I was born
-Solo-
But as I sit here today, many miles I am away From a place I rode my pony thru the draw Where the oak and blackjack trees Kiss the playful prairie breeze In those Oklahoma Hills where I was born
Chorus: -Solo-
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 In those Oklahoma Hills where I was born
