OU CHANT O--K--L--A--H--O--M--A---!

Our chant rolls on and on.

Thousands strong join heart and song in Alma Mater’s praise; Of campus beautiful by day and night; Of colors proudly gleaming red and white 'neath a western sky, OU’s chant will never die!

Live on, university.

STATE SONG “OKLAHOMA” Oklahoma! Where the wind comes sweepin’ down the plain and the wavin’ wheat can sure smell sweet when the wind comes right behind the rain.

Oklahoma! Every night my honey lamb and I sit alone and talk, and watch a hawk makin’ lazy circles in the sky.

We know we belong to the land, and the land we belong to is grand, and when we say A-yip-i-o-ee-ay!

We’re only sayin’ You’re doin’ fine Oklahoma, Oklahoma - OK!
