Oklahoma Hills (1976 Film Version) Lyrics by David Carradine
1976
[David Carradine as Woody Guthrie, John Lehne as Mr. Locke, Ronny Cox as Ozark Bule] (You sure as hell don't look like much. How do you sound?) (Makes me happy) (You just hear him, Mr. Locke) (Okay, Guthrie, let's hear something) ('Kay. I'd like to sing a song about the place–) (Uh, Guthrie, can't we just get on with it, please?) (… place where I grew up. It's called, uh, In These Oklahoma Hills Where I Was Born.) [Guthrie sings, plays guitar and harmonica] Many a month has come and gone Since I wandered from my home In those Oklahoma hills where I was born. [harmonica] Many a page of life has turned Many a lesson I have learned; And I feel like in those hills I still belong. [harmonica] 'Way down yonder in the Indian Nation Ridin' my pony on the reservation In those Oklahoma hills where I was born 'Way down yonder in the Indian Nation A cowboy's life is my occupation In those Oklahoma hills where I was born. [harmonica] But as I stand here in L.A., Many miles I am away (Okay, Guthrie, you can end now) From a place I rode my pony through the draw, [harmonica] (Uh, Guthrie?) While the oak and blackjack trees Kiss the playful prairie breeze And I feel (Guthrie) like in those hills (Cut it down) I still belong. [harmonica] 'Way down yonder in the Indian Nation Ridin' my pony on the reservation In those Oklahoma hills where I was born. [harmonica] 'Way down yonder in the Indian Nation A cowboy's life is my occupation In those Oklahoma hills where I was born. [harmonica] (There's an advance, Guthrie) [harmonica] (I-I-I want you to go out and get a set) Yodele-ih-eh! (of decent clothes!) Yodele-ih! Yodele-ih!(And show up here next) Yodele-yodele-ih-oh!(Thursday!) Yodele-ih-oh! (That's twenty bucks) Yodele-ih-uh! (a week!) [harmonica] Yeehaw!
