Jennings, Waylon - Oklahoma Sunshine Lyrics
New York woman tryin' to make me love her
A sad eyed girl with rollers in her hair
Down the hall somebody's cooking cabbage
Kids're running up and down the stairs.
But I can't go no matter how I try
But once again I'll be in Oklahoma tonight
When I lay down and close my eyes.
I'll be standing in that Oklahoma sunshine
Just got off a bus from another world
Kissing mom and shaking hands with papa
Dryin' the tears of an Oklahoma girl.
Standing in that Oklahoma sunshine
The blue eyed girl with the golden hair still loves me
When I go back to Oklahoma in my mind.
When the cold wind blows in this big city
A part of me flies home to where it's warm
New York woman thinks that I'm still with her
Just because I'm sleeping in her arms.
But I'll be standing in that Oklahoma sunshine
A dream that I have dreamed so many times
The blue eyed girl with the golden hair still loves me
When I go back to Oklahoma in my mind.
Oh, I'll be standing in that Oklahoma sunshine
Just got off a bus from another world...

Jennings, Waylon Oklahoma Sunshine Comments
It a Okie thang.You wouldn't understand.
Love Waylon. And love my Oklahoma
Waylon in his prime
I used to listen to this album and this song in the cold dreary foggy day in Germany, counting the days to come back to the "world".
Beautiful song! That voice😘
2019 who else is listening!
Thank god he died before the liberals could twist his mind and make him an enemy of the people like that traitor WN. By the way WN could never reach above Waylons shoe soles.
He's the best
Buck u can come home
Me & Mike were bestfriends for years then he explained to me he was in love with me it's been the best times of my life we we decided to have a relationship..im sorry I will always love you
I'm happy know
I finally getting over you you ignore me for years what was I supposed to do
That voice!
Love. The. Name. Waylon. .Distinct
When I first heard Waylon in the early 70s, I knew he was one of the greats.
Idealnie
70s rock
did you know his name on his birth certificate is Waylond.. not Waylon . the preacher came to see him and told his Momma that he thought it was great that she named him after Waylond College... just a tid bit of info.... love the man and his music... !!!.
Close enough....Birth Cert say's Wayland..His name was changed after a Baptist preacher visited Jennings's parents and congratulated his mother for naming him after the Wayland Baptist University in Plainview, Texas. Lorene Jennings, who had been unaware of the college, changed the spelling to Waylon.
class..
Great voice,and so many good songs it's hard to pick a number one,but this comes close!
Miss Him so much .I adored Him since the early sixties
Nobody had a better voice.
I think nobody could sing his style of music
Icejjfish
Sure hits home.
Hard to pick my favorite from so many but this great song stands out for sure and came from the period of Waylon's prime (late 60's - early 70's) in my opinion. Captures such great energy and feeling with that powerful, expressive voice. "This Time," "Ramblin' Man," Lonesome, On'ry and Mean," are all time timeless masterpieces, again, in my opinion.
Ladies Love Outlaws
Damn, Waylon was so awesome. Hell, I'm a city boy, but after hearing this song about 30 times today I'm ready to move to Oklahoma!
You got to really have been from Oklahoma...in order to love it that much! I know I know...it's the girl!
Being a 44 year old okie i love waylon. I got "stuck" in Mexico for a month last year. I played this song over and over. Missed my golden haired girls back in red dirt country. There is no better people than Okies and Texans.
nor will anyone ever again....
I gotta leave this God forsaken New York :( Waylon a MASTER in TOP FORM here...
OL WAYLON is the best there ever was. Youre truly one of a kind Hoss, we all miss you. Your music will keep your spirit alive.
Waylon was in his very prime in this era. Classic Americana art. Love the song.
0:00-3:30 is nothing but awesome. there should be a jealous button and have everybody singing todays country click it, because we all know they're jealous of Waylon.
I've listened to Waylon far more than any other country singer. " Waylon is country, and "COUNTRY IS WAYLON!" No richer, steady voice can surpass this artist, the greatest I think country music has ever witnessed. This particular song ( Oklahoma Sunshine ) my very favorite and my dad's very favorite Waylon song. His music will always reign supreme in this Colorado boy!
Another great one , by the great Waylon....good choice
Please please please let me embed this video onto my tumblr!!
My Wife's Favorite Waylon tune, and I have to admit, one of my favs as well!!! . and both of us being Oklahomans, we do know about that Oklahoma Sunshine..thanks for posting it
It applies so little to my life, but makes me cry like no other. I'm an Okie too, living away from home. This gets me right in the gut.
@teeger66, You're right, no one ever had a voice like "Ole Waylon"
Love this song so much
drank alot of beer to this one..heres to you, hoss!
I had left Oklahoma for Wyoming when this song first came out. To this day I wonder whatever happened to that blue eyed girl that I left standing in the Oklahoma Sunshine
gone but still number one in waylon;s fans hearts....
Brilliant Song indeed. Country music misses Waylon and others like him.
just the reverse. this time was his first, ramblin man second number one. tit for tat i know.........ladies and gentlemen this is as good as it gets
Love it, Waylon is my nr 1 countrysinger:-)
Terrific song. Which album is this song from? Great job :)
jenkar69 Ramblin man
No one...EVER...had a voice like that. before or since!
