John McCornack - Being an Okie

One of our nations best kept secrets
Is the advantage of an Okie lifestyle
A place where life can be rewarding
Where everyone has reason to smile

Where the simple life is always best
Where concern is always progress
The standards set by our ancestors
Simple... It is a life without distress

John McCornack
