Oklahoma Hills

Woody Guthrie

Transposer:

Many months have come and gone, since I wandered from my home In those Oklahoma Hills where I was born Many a page of life has turned, many a lesson I have learned Well I feel like in those hills I still belong Way down yonder in the Indian Nation, I ride my pony on the reservation In those Oklahoma Hills where I was born Now way down yonder in the Indian Nation, a Cowboy's life is my occupation In those Oklahoma Hills where I was born But as I sit here today, many miles I am away From a place I rode my pony through the draw While the Oak And Blackjack trees, kiss the playful prairie breeze In those Oklahoma Hills where I was born Way down yonder in the Indian Nation, I ride my pony on the reservation In those Oklahoma Hills where I was born Now way down yonder in the Indian Nation, a Cowboy's life is my occupation In those Oklahoma Hills where I was born Now as I turn life a page, to the land of the great old sage In those Oklahoma Hills where I was born While the Black Oil it rolls and flows and the snow white cotton grows In those Oklahoma Hills where I was born Way down yonder in the Indian Nation, I ride my pony on the reservation In those Oklahoma Hills where I was born Now way down yonder in the Indian Nation, a Cowboy's life is my occupation In those Oklahoma Hills where I was born

La chanson évoque le souvenir des collines d'Oklahoma, un lieu cher à l'auteur, où il a grandi. Elle parle des leçons apprises au fil du temps et de l'attachement profond qu'il ressent pour sa terre natale. Il se souvient des balades à cheval dans les paysages typiques de la région, entre les arbres et la prairie, tout en mentionnant la vie de cowboy qui l'accompagne maintenant. L’ambiance est à la fois nostalgique et pleine de gratitude pour ses racines. Le contexte de cette chanson renvoie à la culture américaine, tout en touchant du doigt les influences des peuples autochtones et la vie rurale. C’est une célébration de l'identité et de l'appartenance, le tout inscrit dans les vastes paysages de l’Oklahoma.
