Chicks and ducks and geese better scurry

When I take you out in the surrey,

When I take you out in the surrey

With the fringe on top!




Watch that fringe and see how it flutters

When I drive them high steppin' strutters.

Nosey pokes'll peek thru' their shutters

And their eyes will pop!




The wheels are yeller, the upholstery's brown,

The dashboard's genuine leather,

With isinglass curtains y' can roll right down,

In case there's a change in the weather.

Two bright sidelight's winkin' and blinkin',

Ain't no finer rig I'm a-thinkin'

You c'n keep your rig if you're thinkin'

'At I'd keer to swap

Fer that shiny, little surrey with the

Fringe on the top!







Don't throw bouquets at me,

Don't please my folks too much

Don't laugh at my jokes too much

People will say we're in love

Don't sigh and gaze at me,

Your sighs are so like mine

Your eyes mustn't glow like mine,

People will say we're in love

Don't start collecting things

Give me my rose and my glove

Sweetheart, they're suspecting things

People will say we're in love









Oklahoma!

Where the wind comes sweeping down the plain

Where the waving wheat can sure smell sweet

When the wind comes right behind the rain

Oklahoma

Every night my honey lamb and I

Sit alone and talk and watch a hawk

Making lazy circles in the sky

We know we belong to the land

And the land we belong to is grand

That's when we say Yeoow! A-yip-i-o-ee-ay!


We're only saying

You're doing fine Oklahoma

Oklahoma, O.K.
