my oklahoma home (live in dublin) - bruce springsteen lyrics
[audience in bold]
when they opened up the strip i was young and full of zip
wanted some place to call my home
and so i made the race and i staked me out a place
and i settled down along the cimarron
it blowed away, blowed away, it blowed away, blowed away
yeah, my oklahoma home is blown away
well it looked so green and fair when i built my shanty there
now my oklahoma home is blown away
come on!
well i planted wheats and oats, had some chickens and some shoats
aimed to have some ham and eggs to feed my face
i got a mule to pull the plow, got an old red muley cow
and i also got a fancy mortgage on this place
well it blowed away, blowed away, it blowed away, blowed away
all the crops that i’ve planted blown away
well you can’t grow any grain if you ain’t got any rain
everything except my mortgage blown away
soozie tyrell!
well it looked so green and fair when i built my shanty there
figured i was all set for life
i put on my sunday best with my fancy scalloped vest
then i went to town to pick me out a wife
she blowed away, blowed away, she blowed away, blowed away
my oklahoma woman blown away
mister as i bent to kiss her, she was sweeped up by a twister
my oklahoma woman’s blown away
come on, charlie!
then i was left alone, and just listening to the moan
of the wind around the corners of my shack
i took off down the road, when the south wind blowed
and i traveled with the wind upon my back
i blowed away, blowed away, i blowed away, blowed away
yeah, chasin’ that dust cloud up ahead
once it looked so green and fair, now it’s up in the air
my oklahoma farm is over head
slam, charles!
i’m always close to home, it don’t matter where i roam
oklahoma dust is everywhere
makes no difference where i’m walkin’, i can hear my chickens squawkin’
i can hear my wife a-talking in the air
it blowed away, blowed away, it blowed away, blowed away
yeah my oklahoma home is blown away
my home sir, ‘s always near, it’s up in the atmosphere
my oklahoma home is blown away
kick, banjo!
i’m a roam’n oklahoman and i’m always close to home
never get homesick until i die
no matter where i’m found, my home’s all around
my oklahoma home is in the sky
it blowed away, blowed away, it blowed away, blowed away
my farm down on cimarron
now all around the world wherever dust is swirled
there’s some from my oklahoma home
it’s blown away, blown away, blown away, blown away
yeah my oklahoma home is blown away
it’s up there in the sky in that dust cloud by and by
my oklahoma home is blown away
it’s blown away, blown away, it’s blown away, blown away
yeah, my oklahoma home is blown away
it’s up there in the sky in that dust cloud by and by
my oklahoma home is in the sky
marty rifkin on the steel guitar!
