Oklahoma Annie
I am an Oklahoma cowgirl
I ride an Oklahoma pony
Her name is Oklahoma Annie
Oklahoma Annie can do anything!
I love my Oklahoma Annie
I love my Oklahoma Annie
We were counting all the butterflies in our back yard
When the world grew darker and the wind blew hard
The sky took to turning and a twister came down
It tore across the prairie heading straight for town!
I called Oklahoma Annie!
Oklahoma Annie!
Oklahoma Annie came thundering in
She ran circles round that funnel with an opposite spin
That F4 tornado went 3 2 1
And there was nothing left swirling by the time she was done.
The headlines read: Tornado Blown Away
Oklahoma Annie Saves the Day!
Chorus
We were singing to the cattle in the bright moonlight
When a horrible howl rose into the night
A thousand lean coyotes in a dangerous mood
Were breaking into houses and stealing people’s food!
I called Oklahoma Annie!
Oklahoma Annie!
Oklahoma Annie charged into the zone
She called to all the horses she had ever known
She lead the horse army in a counter-attack
A thousand coyotes went whimpering back
The headlines read: Coyotes Run Away
Oklahoma Annie Saves the Day!
Chorus
Train wrecks, rattle snakes, cattle stampedes
Whatever the challenge is Annie succeeds
Brave as Wonder Woman; Strong as Supergirl
I wouldn’t ever trade her for the whole wide world
Chorus
