Rodgers And Hammerstein's, "Oklahoma"

Oklahoma, ev'ry night my honey lavender
Sit in Wichita and watch a hawk
Makin' lazy circles in the sky.
Sit in Wichita and watch a hawk
Makin' lazy circles in the sky.

Sit alone and talk and watch a hawk
Makin' lazy circles in the sky.
Sit alone and talk and watch a hawk
Makin' lazy circles in the sky.
