Get out of Oklahoma
Run away from all that dust
Pack up your family in that Cadillac you love so much

I hear Oregon is nice
Maybe you can find some work
Setup a canteen selling coffee by the bus stop

Oh, but keep playin' that piano
Who knows, maybe you can make it on the radio
Did you ever know your hands could do more than work the land?
Well I heard your song and I can't get it out of my head

Well you waited for the spotlight
Or was it somethin' that you needed to do?
Did you love it for the night-life?
Stayin' out late for a drink or two

Can you tell me where I came from?
Can you show me what it all means
To put the pen on a page
Stand on the stage
Hoping that somebody believes

Oh, but keep playin' that piano
Who knows, maybe we can make it on the radio
Did you ever know your hands could do more than work the land?
Well I heard your song and I can't get it out of my head

We're still singin', singin' your songs
You're still givin'
Even when you're gone
We're still singin', singin' your songs
You're still giving
Even when you're gone

Oh, keep playin' that piano
Who knows, maybe we can make it on the radio
Did you ever know your hands could do more than work the land?
Well I heard your song and I can't get it out of my head
