I know a Chief named Clarence Louie

A leader to his people is his call of duty

See him in his customized Harley

Bumpin kid Rock loudly, hair blown feeling really groovy.

I know a kid named Orion Kane

Out of anyone i met he's got the flyest name

Dances traditional and makes it rain

rocks his regalia like a lions mane

I know a man by the name of Sam

He loves to tend the land with his empty hand

in the vineyard all night and day

So you can have a glass of Merlot and Chardonnay

I know a lady named Gloria

One arm but she can work much more than ya

…oh man she's tough.

Defeated the Shushwop at Mckenzie Bluff.

I know a man named Bob

Education of his nation thats his job.

I told him that i liked him a lot

That he was funny and what not, he just said "huh? what?"

I know a snake named Goliath

Enjoys alotta protein in his diet

When your near him you better keep quiet

Tried to pet him but Bob told me not to try it.

I know a man named derek

plays a guitar thats 24 karat

Drives a golf cart, like he's Dale Earnhardt

Cool dude i had to put him in my lyric.

i know a band named Osoyoos

Try to hate but you can't cause its no use.

The best golf course and the best produce

A lot of wine, but not a lot of "cowshoes"

Chorus:

This is how we do it when we go to Okanagan

In the grapevines tryna scare away the robins

Inka Meep creepin i dont really see a problem

You gotta have the salmon when you go to Okanagan.
