Lyrics
sitting under starry night skies
western 40 rolling past my eyes
there's been too much rain, not enough sunshine
those last 72 hours are
rolling around my mind
well it's been a long road since I left her door
and I don't know if I'm going back anymore
but the stars remind me of her eyes
and that look she gave me haunts me every mile
wondering how I'll ever break the news
Ramblin' Oklahoma Midnight Blues
well all this highway gives me time to think
and I'll change my mind before the sun can sink
this western 40 has so many mile
before I rest again you know I'll see her smile
wondering if I'll ever see it through
Ramblin Oklahoma Midnight Blues
Oh Oklahoma I pray the stars above
Oh Oklahoma Can there be an exit from love
