Another Oklahoma Day It’s just another Oklahoma day,the blazing sun is dropping low.The crops are wilting in the fields,the ominous west wind blows.

Circle of Stones

Surrender
Surrender Down the mountainside a gentle breeze blowsThrough the mighty maples and oaks so fair.Past the gold meadows where the river flowsNightingale crooning, love is in the air.
