[Audience in bold]
When they opened up the strip I was young and full of zip
Wanted some place to call my home
And so I made the race, and I staked me out a place
And I settled down along the Cimarron

It blowed away, blowed away, it blowed away, blowed away
Yeah, my Oklahoma home is blown away
Well, it looked so green and fair when I built my shanty there
Now my Oklahoma home is blown away

Come on!

Well, I planted wheats and oats, had some chickens and some shoats
Aimed to have some ham and eggs to feed my face
I got a mule to pull the plow, got an old red muley cow
And I also got a fancy mortgage on this place

Well, it blowed away, blowed away, it blowed away, blowed away
All the crops that I've planted blown away
Well, you can’t grow any grain if you ain't got any rain
Everything except my mortgage blown away

Soozie Tyrell!

Well, it looked so green and fair when I built my shanty there
Figured I was all set for life
I put on my Sunday best with my fancy scalloped vest
Then I went to town to pick me out a wife
She blowed away, blowed away, she blowed away, blowed away
My Oklahoma woman blown away
Mister, as I bent to kiss her, she was swooped up by a twister
My Oklahoma woman's blown away

Come on, Charlie!

Then I was left alone, and just listening to the moan
Of the wind around the corners of my shack
I took off down the road where the south wind blowed
And I traveled with the wind upon my back

I blowed away, blowed away, I blowed away, blowed away
Yeah, chasin’ that dust cloud up ahead
Once it looked so green and fair, now it's up in the air
My Oklahoma farm is over head

Slam, Charles!

I'm always close to home, it don't matter where I roam
Oklahoma dust is everywhere
Makes no difference where I'm walkin', I can hear my chickens squawkin'
I can hear my wife talking in the air

It blowed away, blowed away, it blowed away, blowed away
Yeah, my Oklahoma home is blown away
My home, Sir, 's always near, it’s up in the atmosphere
My Oklahoma home is blown away
Kick, banjo!

I’m a roam'n Oklahoman, and I’m always close to home
Never get homesick until I die
No matter where I'm found, yeah, my home is all around
My Oklahoma home's in the sky

It blowed away, blowed away, it blowed away, blowed away
My farm down on the Cimarron
Now all around the world wherever dust is swirled
There's some from my Oklahoma home

It’s blown away, blown away, it's blown away, blown away
My Oklahoma home is blown away
It's up there in the sky in that dust cloud by and by
My Oklahoma home's blown away

It's blown away, blown away, it's blown away, blown away
Yeah, my Oklahoma home is blown away
It's up there in the sky in that dust cloud by and by
My Oklahoma home is in the sky
