Tulsa Time

Well, I left Oklahoma

Driving in a Pontiac

Just about to lose my mind

I was going to Arizona

Maybe on to California

Where people all live so fine

My mother says I'm crazy

My baby calls me lazy

But I'm gonna show them all this time

'Cause you know I ain't no fool and

I don't need no more damn schoolin'

I was born to just walk the line

Living on Tulsa Time

Living on Tulsa Time

Gonna set my watch back to it

'Cause you know that I've been through it

Living on Tulsa Time

So there I was in Hollywood

Thinking I was doing good

Talking on the telephone line

They don't want me in the movies

And nobody sings my songs

My mama says

"My baby's doing fine"

So, then I started winking

Then I started thinking

That I really had a flash this time.l

That I had no bussiness leaving

And nobody would be grieving

You see I'm on Tulsa time

Living on Tulsa Time

Living on Tulsa Time

Gonna set my watch back to it

'Cause you know that I've been through it

Living on Tulsa Time

Living on Tulsa Time

Living on Tulsa Time

Gonna set my watch back to it

'Cause you know that I've been through it

Living on Tulsa Time
