C
Well me and Roy Nichols
F
And couple other fellows in the band
G7
Got to talking it over
C
Thought we'd take off a little time if we can
I don't mean to say I'm quitting
F
I'm just tired of making love to a telephone
C
I'm coming home so I can find me a flight this morning man G7 C
And the Okie from Muskogee is coming home
Well it has been twenty years of traveling
F
Twenty years of living out on the road
G7
Learning this chorus and learning these songs
C
And paying up all these dues they say I owe
Now I may always be a rambler
F
And always have the urge to roam
C
I'm coming home so I can find me a flight this morning man G7 C
And the Okie from Muskogee is coming home
