"No U In Oklahoma" lyrics - REBA MCENTIRE

Well my daddy said the day he met you
We weren't meant to be
Said "That boy's got a wild streak in him"
That spelled trouble for me
My foolish heart had love to burn
You took it for a ride
Down a long road of twists and turns
Heartaches, hurt, and lies

[Chorus:]
You put the T for tears in Texas
S for sad in St. Louis
Our reckless travels led us
To the state of Missouri/misery
I cried clear 'cross Carolina
'Bout some boy in Tennessee
There's no U in Oklahoma
And that's okay with me

We tried K.C., Fort Worth, Reno
Cheyenne, Timbuktu
Somewhere down 'round Tupelo
My daddy's words rang true
I called it quits in T-Town
I finally had my say
Adios, see you around
I'm gone, you go your way

[Chorus:]
You put the T for tears in Texas
S for sad in St. Louis
Our reckless travels led us
To the state of Missouri/misery
I cried clear 'cross Carolina
'Bout some boy in Tennessee
There's no U in Oklahoma
And that's okay with me

[Chorus:]
You put the T for tears in Texas
S for sad in St. Louis
Our reckless travels led us
To the state of Missouri/misery
I cried clear 'cross Carolina
'Bout some boy in Tennessee
There's no U in Oklahoma
And that's okay with me
There's no U in Oklahoma
And that's okay with me
