Oklahoma (song)

Music by	Richard Rodgers
Lyrics by	Oscar Hammerstein II
Date	1943
Source	"Oklahoma!" musical
Publisher	Williamson Music Co.

Oklahoma! is the title song from the Rodgers & Hammerstein musical of the same name, and the state song of Oklahoma.

On episode 317 of The Muppet Show, Fozzie, dressed as a cowboy, comes on stage to sing the song. To his confusion he finds himself on a japanese-themed stage dodging swords wielded by The Mutations dressed as samurai. The song becomes "Yokohama!".

In a 1988 Sesame Street sketch, Forgetful Jones stars in Kermit the Frog's production of Oklahoma!, but can't pronounce the vowel in the song title, resulting in "Ikelahoma" and "Akelahoma," amongst others.
