Lyrics

[00:00.00] Billy Gilman - Oklahoma
[00:12.60]
[00:14.60] Suitcase packed with all his things
[00:18.21] Car pulls up the door bell rings
[00:21.09] He don't wanna go
[00:23.90] He thought he'd found his home
[00:27.78] But with circumstances he can't change
[00:31.93] Waves good-bye as they pull away
[00:34.47] From the life he's known
[00:37.08] For the last seven months or so.
[00:41.48]
[00:42.08] She says we found a man that looks like you.
[00:46.72] Who cried and said he never knew
[00:50.21] About the boy in pictures that we showed him.
[00:56.93] A rambler in his younger days
[01:00.61] He knew he made a few mistakes
[01:03.56] But he swore he would have been there
[01:07.06] Had he known it.
[01:10.17] Son we think we found your dad in Oklahoma.
[01:16.07]
[01:21.36] A million thoughts raced through his mind
[01:25.14] What's his name? what's he like?
[01:27.98] And will he be anything like the man in his dreams.
[01:34.72] She could see the questions in his eyes
[01:38.77] Wispered don't be scared my child
[01:41.67] I will let you know what we know
[01:48.87]
[01:49.46] About the man who that found he looks like you
[01:53.81] Who cryed and said he never knew
[01:57.29] About the boy in pictures that we showed him.
[02:04.08] A rambler in his younger days
[02:07.62] He knew he'd made a few mistakes
[02:10.82] But he swore he would have been there
[02:14.02] Had he known it
[02:17.04] He always said that
[02:18.68] This was something that you wanted.
[02:23.93] Son it's time to meet your dad in Oklahoma
[02:29.91]
[02:31.74] One last turn he held his breath
[02:34.76] Till they reached the big house on the left
[02:38.28] And all at once the tears came rollin in
[02:45.17] And as they pulled into the drive
[02:48.48] A man was waiting there outside
[02:52.05] To wipe the worry from his eyes
[02:55.49] Smiled and took his hand
[02:59.57]
[03:00.39] And he said
[03:02.40] I'm the man that looks like you
[03:05.53] That cried because i never knew
[03:08.94] About the boy in pictures that they showed me
[03:15.61] A rambler in my younger days
[03:19.14] I knew I made a few mistakes
[03:22.52] But I swear I would have been there
[03:25.66] Had I known it
[03:29.59] Never again will you ever be alone
[03:36.33] Son welcome to your home in Oklahoma
[03:48.71]
[03:58.50] ^i^ END ^i^
