Lyrics:

La-la-la, la-la
Oh, hey-hey-hey
La-la-la, la-la

Every year 'bout this time the local gentry
Have a meetin' in Chickasaw land
They all come to judge each and every entry
That wants to try out for the Okolona band

All the way from Kosciusko
Up from Biloxi shore
All in all, there's not a half-grown man
Who wouldn't like to be
In the Okolona River Bottom Band

La-la-la, la-la
Oh, hey-hey-hey
La-la-la, la-la

The semi-annual
Come as you can-ual
Five-man band-ual
Okolona River Bottom Band

La-la-la, la-la
Oh, hey-hey-hey
La-la-la, la-la

The backwood majority
No hold barrèd-y
Come as you are-edy
Okolona River Bottom Band

La-la-la, la-la

All the way from Kosciusko
Up from Biloxi shore
All in all, there's not a half-grown man
Who wouldn't like to be
In the Okolona River Bottom Band

La-la-la, la-la

The I-told-you-so-ciety
Green apple pie-ety
Delta variety
Okolona River Bottom Band

La-la-la, la-la
Oh, hey-hey-hey
La-la-la, la-la

(I gave you my dog)
Oh, I got a dog
(You, you got a friend?)
Don't I?
(That's the end)
Amen
