I remember on my 16th Birthday my dad called the country radio station here in Tulsa - KVOO and asked the DJ to play this song for me and so my dad tells me to turn on the radio that he had them to play a song for me and the DJ says your dad says he loves you and Happy 16th Birthday and then the DJ said - And maybe he'll buy you a new car for your Birthday today. Then the song came on. So yeah eveutime I hear this song, I do get very teary eyed. It reminds me of my mom and dad both together ❤️ My mom has since passed and my dad has moved back to his home town and I miss them every day. Yes, cherish those moments you have with your parents andake the most of it with them. You only get one mom and one dad in this life time.
Love ❤️
My mom was a green/hazel eyed ranchers daughter 🫶🏼
I'm a born and raised Florida girl and damn proud of it but every time I hear this song I get teary eyed, this song is the real deal.The crap they consider " country" music these days is just that...crap, with a very few exceptions... So sad.
I totally agree Teresa! I am a Florida guy too but something about this song always got me! Lol! And yes, the new songs are crap!!!!
The forces are gonna kill our gorgeous State! I am heading to North Florida! Join me and head the cattle there too! The Indians and the panthers. Won't be nothin left soon but Walmarts and strip malls. No room for cowmen or gopher tortoises or manatees.
I went to see "LORETTA LYNN" & "DAVID & SHELLY" OPENED FOR HER...What a show!
Amen to that
I live about 30 minutes from Tulsa on a farm. I like to listen to this in the evening and look at the stars.
I was riding a John Deere tractor one evening in Kansas and I was missing my wife in Long Beach, CA. And this song came on the country radio station I was listening to, cried like a baby.
I first remember hearing this song in the first grade. Even as a kid I knew this song was special.
I am a green eyed ranchers daughter and from Oklahoma, born and raised on a family cattle ranch established in 1903.
This song is now and has been an anthem for many Oklahomans.
Now when I hear it my eyes fill up with tears- happy, proud, reminiscent and love.
As an adult, I have now lived on both coasts and Oklahoma still has, will always be and represent my home, Tiger Mountain Oklahoma.
Whenever I had to be gone getting home and stepping foot on the soil that has held my family's blood, sweat, tears, and proudest moments, I can FEEL the legacy of my family and our heritage that runs through my veins. There's no paradise on Earth like my paradise in Oklahoma.
Used to hear this in the tractor at 16 years old, working on Grandparents Ranch in East Texas, (Cherokee County, TX) just pining away for my girlfriend back in the big smoke of Ft Worth. Felt like the song was written for my dumb fool self! But that's exactly what good songs are supposed to do!! Still love it!
Don't know what but all the sudden this song got stuck in my brain. July first 2024.
Always be an anthem ,I'm from Cherokee County, Oklahoma, the Capital of The Cherokee Nation of Oklahoma! ( then add Cherokee Fiddle)
Love Cherokee Fiddle!!!!
Listening to this song reminds me of my Papa (Grandpa) he used to sit in his garage working on his John Deere tractor listening to this song while my sister and I would sweep the floor. He died when I was 12.
😭
great narrative set to music and excellent voices
When I left beautiful, peace loving Viet Nam I still had 13 months left of my 4 year service
i theUSAF so they sent me to Altus AFB Oklahoma. that was mid 60s. In a short time I fell in love with Oklahoma and the cowboy way. Real soon I was wearing boots and a black cowboy hat. I learned to be a cowboy you treat the ladies with courtesy and politely never cuss or be rude in front of a lady. Always tell the truth, look a man in the eye, and be honest. I left the USAF and gave the Atlanta Fire Dept 31 years. I'm am old man now but I still wear my black cowboy hat. I miss Oklahoma I like to think I'm still a cowboy I plead God bless America, God bless Oklahoma
Hey buddy, thank you for serving your country for SO many years! YOU are a TRUE warrior and a GOOD person at least to me. I am a firefighter for 39 years. I reckon I'm old now too. LOL! Time doesn't matter, I bought a new motorcycle two days ago! Thanks for your service buddy! Hang in there and enjoy the music!
Once again, thank you for your service, USAF and Atlanta Fire. From another old FF…34 years.
Since the first time I heard it, back when it was released, I felt, and still feel that this is the greatest country and western song of all time. Just my never to be humble opinion.
Love this song❤
Oklahoma will always be my home state and love it
Well make up your mind... is Oklahoma your _Home State_ or your _Second Home?_
Home state
Am a Jamaica and I love this song so much
Grew up traveling the backroads of Oklahoma with my twine-salesman father and still feel the heartstrings tug at the tune of this sweet, sad song.
country music is the best for telling life stories
Love Oklahoma and miss it now I live in Missouri
Just moved to Oklahoma one year ago, about 40 minutes from Tulsa. Was homesick for a while till I went back to Arizona and California last week. Fond memories from those places but Oklahoma now has my heart. ❤
MY FAV DUET
One of the greatest songs ever made❤
Pure Country music at its best. They just don't make country music like this anymore.
My FavoriteCOWBOY SONG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That's the Sound i realy get in to it, great music 👍
I miss you dad
Oklahoma WILL always be my second home
I was dating a fine, wonderful, beautiful country girl when this song was released and introduced her to this song,,, I guess it was our song. I was sowing my oats around this same time and introduce this good girl to other things, too much grown up things about coming of age and I knew if she kept seeing me she would pick up those grown up things,, and in turn changing her and I couldn't be responsible for corrupting her. I broke up with her without much if any explanation and broke her heart but I knew where my life was taking me and I could not let her follow,,, I wish I could tell her today but I wouldn't want to bring any old pain into her good life (I pray it's just as wonderful as she was back then). I don't need forgiveness but I would like to tell her she didn't do anything wrong,, It was me. I cried so deeply hearing this for the first time since 1985ish I guess,,, Theresa I am sorry for hurting you because of my selfishness but I wanted to save you from much more pain you didn't deserve.

My mother loved this song. I'd didn't get played at her funeral. Family quarrels 😢
From Missouri I never left a woman that didn't beg me to stay. So this song means absolutely nothing to my heart strings

Im sure missing you.
Being raised as one of the first baby boomer generation, I was priviledged to hear some of the best music since the creation of the song and instruments. There was a revolution in music from about 1945 thru about 1990. Country Western Swing. Classic, Gospel, Soul, all seemed to merge with new ideas on what made a song good. The result was the best music of all times. It died when Big business took it over and got rich on it. Those Idiots on "Americas Got Talent" are the judges of what we all should hear. Blame them. In the 60's and 70's you could cut your own record in a local studio, and promote it to radio stations and have a # 1 hit for a hundred bucks. Thanks for ruining it all Simon.
Not many independent owners of radio & TV stations anymore.
@@EagleArrow You are right Eagle Arrow. But it was a better era when it was. Now that they are all corporate owned, the magic doesn't work any more.

I had to listen to Phucking Trump commercial in order to hear this Song 😂😂
Great song but too short. There should b e another verse or two. Girl comes home and they reconnect.
it's a song about being apart and not one about getting together
"You're the reason God made Oklahoma" sounds like an insult.
Great song fir those who get it
Green eyes my beautiful 😍
