It makes me feel small sometimes
In my daddy's Ford
Catching crappy fish in Eufaula lake
We'd drive a hundred miles
Laughin' all the while
But I ain't in Checotah anymore
Oh yeah, I'm in a world so wide
It makes me feel small sometimes
I miss the big blue sky
And back when I was really young
The Oklahoma kind
In a world of long red carpets
Between the Sonic and the grocery store
The Oklahoma kind
I miss the big blue skies
I miss the big blue skies
The bright lights of Hollywood
I'd rather be tipping cows in Tulsa
Than hailin' cabs here in New York
My hotel in Manhattan
Old Settler's day and the Okra fest
Part of that burned down
But I ain't in Checotah anymore
I ain't in Checotah anymore
Where 69 meets 40
Holds more people than our town
Would be a down payment on a house
Oh, there's nothing like Oklahoma
You can get anything you want here
On any given Friday night
No, I ain't in Checotah
All the paparazzi flashing
But I ain't in Checotah anymore
But I ain't in Checotah
The Oklahoma kind
And what I just paid for dinner
Where the Wildcats beat the Iron Heads
It makes me feel small sometimes
After prom, down at the bowling lanes
With as many friends as I could pack
Could make a girl feel pretty good
Except a Wal-Mart store
I'm in a world so wide
I'm in a world so wide
