Copied!edit Lyrics
original text at lyrnow.com/1033574
Chorus
We are Oklahoma kids. (We are Oklahoma kids)
We are Oklahoma's future. (We are Oklahoma's future)
We shine bright with every color. (We shine bright with every color)
A Kaleidoscope. (A Kaleidoscope)

Verse 1
We speak Chinese. We speak Spanish
We speak Arabic and English
Some among us hear our Grandpas
Speaking Cherokee or Choctaw

We are dark skinned. We are light skinned
We are cowboys. We are Indians
We have ancestors who came here
For a thousand different reasons
Some laid tracks that brought the train
Some drove cattle. Some grew grain
Some were soldiers, others oilmen
Some were slaves and some were freemen

Some rode in on covered wagons
Others walked from distant homelands
We were born here. We were brought here
Somehow all our families got here

So we share a common land we call our own

Chorus
We are Oklahoma kids. (We are Oklahoma kids)
We are Oklahoma's future. (We are Oklahoma's future)
We shine bright with every color. (We shine bright with every color)
A Kaleidoscope. (A Kaleidoscope)

Verse 2
We're explorers and we're triers
We're bike riders and kite flyers
We play baseball. We play soccer
She's a rapper. He's a rocker

From the cities to the rural routes
We are Brownies. We are Boy Scouts
We do Tae Kwon Do and ballet
And we dream what we'll be someday
We'll be singers with guitars
We'll be athletes. We'll be stars
We'll be scientists and teachers
Veterinarians and preachers

We'll build roads and we'll build robots
We'll be farmers. We'll be astronauts
However far we end up going
Today we're learning and we're growing

Here together in this land we call our home

Chorus
We are Oklahoma kids. (We are Oklahoma kids)
We are Oklahoma's future. (We are Oklahoma's future)
We shine bright with every color. (We shine bright with every color)
A Kaleidoscope. (A Kaleidoscope)
