Bob Schneider Oklahoma Lyrics

Oklahoma Lyrics

She came from Oklahoma 

She said the end of the world 

Was on its
way in a Chevy nova

She came from Oklahoma 

She said the end of the
world 

Was on its way in a Chevy nova



Her smile was just a
shadow 

That trembled in the sun

And turned to stone as she grew
older

Her smile was just a shadow 

That trembled in the sun

And turned to stone as she grew older



She bought an El
Camino

And a pocket full of pills she called her

And swore she's
found salvation

But the hand grenades inside her

Where ready to
explode

And the pins were pulled long ago 

By sweet temptation



She found herself in New Orleans

With carnival of tears upon
her veins

In the arms of strangers

When the lies where not
enough

To hold back all the years of pain

She'd lie inside the
danger and cry



You can tie me to the ground but not today

I
need me one more chance to fly away

And tonight I'm gonna fly away
