CHORUS:

Way down yonder in the Indian nation
Ridin' my pony on the reservation
In the Oklahoma Hills where I was born
Way down yonder in the Indian nation
A cowboy's life is my occupation
In the Oklahoma Hills where I was born

"Oklahoma Hills" is a song written by Woody Guthrie




Jack Guthrie, Woody's cousin, later changed the lyrics and music
and in 1945 recorded a Western swing version which he took to number one
on the Juke Box Folk Records charts.
The B-side of the song, entitled, "I'm Brandin' My Darlin' With My Heart"
peaked at number five on the same chart.

Country singer Hank Thompson, joined by His Brazos Valley Boys,
also recorded a well-known version of "Oklahoma Hills".
Thompson's western swing rendition reached No. 10
on the Billboard magazine Hot C&W Singles chart in 1961.

Woody's son, Arlo Guthrie, recorded the song for his album
Running Down the Road, released in 1969 by Warner Bros. Records.

In 2001 the Oklahoma State Legislature declared
Woody's version the official state folk song.
