All life we work but work is bore, If lifes for livin whats livin for, She lives in a house thats near decay, Built for the industrial revolution, But in her dreams she is far away, In oklahoma u.s.a. With shirley jones and gordon mcrea, As she buys her paper at the corner shop, Shes walkin on the surrey with the fringe on top, Cos in her dreams she is far away, In oklahoma u.s.a., She walks to work but shes still in a daze, Shes rita hayworth or doris day, And errol flynns gonna take her away, To oklahoma u.s.a., All life we work but work is a bore, If lifes for livin then whats livin for.
