My Manifest Destiny

My manifest destiny stares back

Through a sunset pair of eyes

Oklahoma land rushing through my veins

You're all the bounty of the plains 

You're the beautiful delirium 

Of bright blue skies

All these strong bucks want you too's

I want to be the one you choose

But when the gun guns,

And they run to your plot

My wagon will stay 

In this very spot

You're my manifest destiny

But I couldn't improve ya, 

And Lord knows you're not free

Be my manifest destiny 

Please, ride up aways east for me
