"OK" (/oʊkeɪ/; also spelled "okay", "ok", or "O.K.") is a word denoting approval, acceptance, agreement, assent, or acknowledgment. "OK", as an adjective, can also express acknowledgment without approval. "OK" has frequently turned up as a loanword in many other languages.
As an adjective, "OK" means "adequate", "acceptable" ("this is OK to send out"), "mediocre" often in contrast to "good" ("the food was OK"); it also functions as an adverb in this sense. As an interjection, it can denote compliance ("OK, I will do that"), or agreement ("OK, that is fine"). As a verb and noun it means "assent" ("the boss OKed the purchase" and "the boss gave his OK to the purchase"). As a versatile discourse marker (or back-channeling item), it can also be used with appropriate voice tone to show doubt or to seek confirmation ("OK?" or "Is that OK?").
Proposed etymologies
Numerous explanations for the origin of the expression have been suggested, but few have been discussed seriously by linguists. The following proposals have found mainstream recognition.
Okie Dokie It's the Orb on Kompakt is the seventh overall studio album by The Orb released on Kompakt. It features new material in addition to tweaked versions of their previous Kompakt releases.
The Orb's music on Kompakt featured Thomas Fehlmann as the primary creative figure, "inhibiting Alex Paterson's whimsical impulses". Because of this, the album was considerably more focused, even, and less "goofy" than Cydonia and Bicycles & Tricycles. Fehlmann's trademark hypnotic loops and delays made him the center of Okie Dokie production and, according to Pitchfork Media, made it "difficult to say where [Paterson] is in the picture". Besides Paterson and Fehlmann, Okie Dokie featured Ulf Lohmann as a co-writer on a track as well as Schneider TM performing vocals for another. The Orb's releases with Kompakt gained The Orb back much of their musical credibility with the press and showed that The Orb could "age gracefully".
An Okie is a resident or native of Oklahoma. Like most terms that disparage specific groups, it was applied by the dominant cultural group. It is derived from the name of the state, similar to Texan or Tex for someone from Texas, or Arkie or Arkansawyer for a native of Arkansas.
In the 1930s in California, the term (often used in contempt) came to refer to very poor migrants from Oklahoma (and nearby states). The Dust Bowl, and the "Okie" migration of the 1930s brought in over a million newly displaced people; many headed to the farm labor jobs advertised in California's Central Valley.
Dunbar-Ortiz (1996) argues that 'Okie' denotes much more than being from Oklahoma. By 1950, four million individuals, or one quarter of all persons born in Oklahoma, Texas, Arkansas, or Missouri, lived outside the region, primarily in the West. Prominent Okies in the 1930s included Woody Guthrie. Most prominent in the late 1960s and 1970s were country musician Merle Haggard and writer Gerald Haslam.

Kau datang dan pergi
Seperti sibuk sendiri
Kau suka ku suka
Tapi berputar putar
Aku bingung sendiri
Melihat mu begini
Kau buat aku jadi pusing
Aku tau maumu
Aku tahu maksudmu
Aku mau jawaban
Cukup satu jawaban

So why you alone girl I just wanna know

Girl I don’t know what your name is

I really don’t know what your man did
But he left you with a frown
I know it might sound a little crazy
But please let me inside
I really don’t know what the case is
But I want you to dry your eyes
[Hook 2]
No woman, no cry
Cause tonight is gonna be alright
You gonna be ok
No woman, no cry
Cause tonight I’m gonna make it right
We gonna be ok
Everything’s gonna be ok
No woman, no cry
[Verse 2]

I don’t think you know but you should be with me
You look like you could be a Lindsay
Maybe an Ashley
I’m in no hurry, I’m waiting patiently

Oh every time he breaks your heart, I’ll take your pain away
Don’t you cry, don’t you, don’t you cry
I just want to chase those clouds and bring you brighter days
Don’t you cry, don’t you don’t you cry
Don’t you cry, don’t you don’t you cry
Don’t you cry, don’t you don’t you cry
Don’t you cry, don’t you don’t you cry
