Oklahoma (i/ˌoʊkləˈhoʊmə/) (Pawnee: Uukuhuúwa , Cayuga: Gahnawiyoˀgeh ) is a state located in the South Central region of the United States of America. Oklahoma is the 20th most extensive and the 28th most populous of the 50 United States. The state's name is derived from the Choctaw words okla and humma, meaning "red people", and it is known informally by its nickname, The Sooner State. Formed by the combination of Oklahoma Territory and Indian Territory on November 16, 1907, Oklahoma was the 46th state to enter the union. Its residents are known as Oklahomans or, informally "Okies", and its capital and largest city is Oklahoma City.
A major producer of natural gas, oil, and agriculture, Oklahoma relies on an economic base of aviation, energy, telecommunications, and biotechnology. It has one of the fastest growing economies in the nation, ranking among the top states in per capita income growth and gross domestic product growth. Oklahoma City and Tulsa serve as Oklahoma's primary economic anchors, with nearly 60 percent of Oklahomans living in their metropolitan statistical areas.

Plot: Now it can be told. In 1995, two wrestling companies squared off on Monday night television to compete head to head in an unprecedented confrontation. On one side, Vince McMahon, the promoter who created WWE and made the industry what it is today. On the other, WCW, owned by media giant Ted Turner, and run by an ambitious man named Eric Bischoff. This is the whole story, by those who created it, lived it, and survived it.

Genres: Western,Sister Jeanie came from Oklahoma
She left when they tried to stone her
Her mother, she tried to disown her
She said she'd always been a loner
Well the other day she wrote me a letter
In which she asked me, please, to never forget her
She said if things get any better
She'll be dead by late September
When I found out, she was already miles away
Eighteen years, and eighteen wheels on that old highway
And in her letter that I recieved just yesterday
She said "Pray for me, papa, that we all don't just fade away"
I remember the day we got talking
She had a brother uptown, I had called him
She picked up the phone, said "Come on over
"I'm a coffee girl and queen in Harlem"
(Spoken) Well, that's exactly what she said
So I reached into my pocket for a token
And went and caught that train
When I found out, she was already miles away
Eighteen years, and eighteen wheels on that old highway
And in her letter that I recieved just yesterday
She said "Pray for me, papa, that we all don't just fade away"
Little sister, just so you know
Little girl, I love'a you so
If I never hear your voice go
I just listen for the wind
When I found out, she was already miles away
Eighteen years, and eighteen wheels on that old highway
And in her letter that I recieved just yesterday
She said "Pray for me, papa, that we all don't just fade away"
You know she said "Pray for me, papa, that we all don't just fade away"
Oh, she said "Pray for me, papa, that we all don't just fade away"
