Tulsa Time

I left Oklahoma, drivin' in a Pontiac

Just about to lose my mind

I was going to Arizona, maybe on to California

Where the people all live so fine

My baby said I was crazy, my mama called me lazy

I was gonna show 'em all this time

'Cause you know I ain't no fool and I don't need no more schoolin'

I was born just to walk the line

Livin' on Tulsa time

Livin' on Tulsa time

Well, you know I've been through it when I set my watch back to it

Livin' on Tulsa time

Well, there I was in Hollywood wishin' I was doin' good

Talkin' on the telephone line

They don't need me in the movies and no one sings my songs

I guess I'm just wastin' time

Well, then I got to thinkin', man, I'm really sinkin'

I really had a flash this time

I had no business leavin' and nobody would be grievin'

If I went back on to Tulsa time

Livin' on Tulsa time

Livin' on Tulsa time

Gonna set my watch back to it 'cause you know that I've been through it

Livin' on Tulsa time

Livin' on Tulsa time

Livin' on Tulsa time

Gonna set my watch back to it 'cause you know I've been through it

Livin' on Tulsa time
