Carrie Underwood I Aint In Checotah Anymore
I Ain't in Checotah Anymore is a title on Carrie Underwood's debut CD, Some Hearts.
Since her American Idol win in 2005, it's been non-stop for Carrie, and I imagine she gets to spend little time in her hometown of Muskogee, Oklahoma anymore.

After the release of her Some Hearts CD, Carrie did go back home to complete her studies to earn a degree in mass communications from Northeastern State University in Oklahoma.
As she put it herself, "That seemed to be where I was headed, and I had spent three-and-a-half years working to get my degree. So I thought it was very important that I go back and finish. I'm glad I did."
I Ain't in Checotah Anymore Lyrics
Where 69 meets 40,
There's a single stop light town,
And back when I was really young,
A part of that burned down,
On any given Friday night,
We'd drive a hundred miles,
Between the Sonic and the Grocery Store,
Laughing all the while,
With as many friends as I could pack,
In my daddy's Ford,
But I ain't in Checotah anymore.
My hotel in Manhattan,
Holds more people than our town,
And what I just paid for dinner,
Would be a down payment on a house,
I'd rather be tipping cows in Tulsa,
Than hailing cabs here in New York,
But I ain't in Checotah anymore.
I'm in a world so wide,
It makes me feel small sometimes,
I miss the big blue skies,
the Oklahoma kind.
In a world of long red carpets,
The bright lights of Hollywood,
All the paparazzi flashing,
Could make a girl feel pretty good,
You can get anything you want here,
Except a Wal-Mart store,
But I ain't in Checotah anymore.
I'm in a world so wide,
It makes me feel small sometimes,
I miss the big blue skies,
the Oklahoma kind.
Where the Wildcats beat the Ironheads,
Old Settler's day and the Okrafest,
After prom, down at the bowling lanes,
Catching crappie fish in Eufaula lake,
I ain't in Checotah anymore.
I'm in a world so wide,
It makes me feel small sometimes,
I miss the big blue skies,
the Oklahoma kind,
But I ain't in Checotah,
No I ain't in Checotah,
Oh, there's nothing like Oklahoma.
Where 69 meets 40,
There's a single stoplight town.
