Biography:
Kate Wolf (born Kathryn Louise Allen in San Francisco, California, USA) (January 27, 1942 – December 10, 1986) was an American folk singer and songwriter.
Wolf didn't get her recording career going until the mid-'70s, by which time she was well into her thirties. Prior to emerging as a solo artist, she had headed the band Wildwood Flower (who backed her on her first two albums), and organized folk concerts and festivals in Northern California. Very much a self-starter

Kate Wolf - Boy From Oklahoma
CAPO: 5th Fret
C G
Travelling across the country
C
Playing on the circuit line
Am
Sometimes I think about a man
D7 G7
Who was here before my time
F C
Named for the 28th president
F G
With a Guthrie tacked to the end
C G
Born in Okemah shoes
Bb F
With the Dust Bowl blues
G C
He's a friend of the working man
G
Now he wasn't fond of New York buildings
C
That tried to touch the sky
Am
Or the West Virginia coal mines
D7 G7
That took so many lives
F C
For the way they drove the migrant workers
F G
Back into Mexico way
C G
The scabs they'd run
Bb F
When they'd heard he'd come
G C
And the bosses started to pray
CHORUS:
F G
Just a boy from Oklahoma
C Am
On an endless one-night stand
F G
Wandering and a-rambling
C Am
Drifting with the midnight sand
F G
Singing the blues and ballads
C F
And whatever came between
Dm
Well, his heart was in the Union
Bb G C F G C
But his soul was reaching out for the servant's dream
G
Now I was talking to a man
C
M et him in a bar near Clovis town
Am
He said the whole place was shaking
D7 G7
As they were passing his songs around
F C
And then somebody asked him
F G
Where he'd be when tomorrow came
C G
He just said with a grin,
Bb F
"I put my thumb in the wind
G C
And I'm off down the road again"
CHORUS:
F G
Just a boy from Oklahoma
C Am
On an endless one-night stand

And whatever came between
Dm
His heart was in the Union
Bb G C F G C
But his soul was reaching out for the servant's dream
G
Now you know Woody Guthrie
C
Is dead and buried in the ground
Am
Sometimes I sing his songs
D7 G7
I get to thinking that he's still around
F C
'Cause his fire is everlasting
F G
His course was run true
C G
That old rambling man's risen
Bb F
And the kingdom is his
G C
But his songs are for me and you
