Crossing Oklahoma

With apologies to Rodgers and Hammerstein

There's a bright golden haze on the meadow
There's a bright golden haze on the meadow
A gust full of dust makes my hairdo go bust
And I feel like I'm blowing clear up to the sky

Oh what a beautiful morning
Oh what a beautiful day
The wind here's beyond merely breezy
Feels like we're blowing away

It's so shocking
How we're rocking
Hold the wheel and say a prayer
For this tussle
You need muscle
And a ros'ry to help get you there

Oh what a beautiful morning
Oh what beautiful day
It's fun when the bus takes you sideways
Oh Lord we're blowing away.
