Lyrics

Ghosts in Oklahoma


There are ghosts in Oklahoma
Of a people once wiped out
And if you listen very closely
You can hear the spirits shout
For justice never given
And for justice not received
There are ghosts in Oklahoma
And they must be believed

There are ghosts in Oklahoma
From a dark and distant time
And their blood trails can be followed
To the Mississippi line
And the memory of a people
That we buried in the clay
But The ghosts in Oklahoma
Will never let them fade away


Will this feeling ever leave me
Will it always be this way
There are ghosts in Oklahoma
But they simply will not say

There are ghosts in Oklahoma
But they will not tell us when
The world will be repaired
Of the damage caused by men
From The fires that were started
And the flames that came by turn
That We seemed to just keep feeding
While praying they won't burn


There are ghosts in Oklahoma
Of a people once wiped out
And if you listen very closely
You can hear the spirits shout
For justice never given
And for justice not received
There are ghosts in Oklahoma
And they must be believed
