OKLAHOMA

WORDS & MUSIC BY
JEFF DUFINE

I've come to delete you
For the dozens who died
I've come to defeat you
I don't even know why

So you men of weather
Don't look to the sky
Cause I'm the tornado
That will cut down your lives

SO, OKLAHOMA, HOW MUCH CAN YOU CRY
SO, OKLAHOMA, WHY MUST THEY DIE

The poison is brewing
While hate fills my soul
My vengeance awaits you
9 stories below

Oklahoma, Oklahoma

Look not in the fields
Or the gardens you grow
I'm parked on your street now
You'll reap what you sow

SO, OKLAHOMA, HOW MUCH CAN YOU CRY
SO, OKLAHOMA, WHY MUST THEY DIE

Mothers screaming, Father, Father
Please release me, Father, Father

Your child's in the manger
So safe in the light
But I'm your God walking
And I'll bring on their night

Oklahoma, Oklahoma

Now you're my new lover
Now you're my new life
I 've wed Oklahoma
For the rest of mv life

SO, OKLAHOMA, HOW MUCH CAN YOU CRY
SO, OKLAHOMA, WHY MUST THEY DIE
