Tulsa County

(album: The Real Thing - 1970)

My nights have been lonely since I've been in Tulsa County
And I really don't know what I'm gonna do
Guess that I'll just mosey down around that southern border
'Cause I feel I gotta get away from you.

I got your note in Charleston that you needed my assistance
But when I came out you didn't need me then
Though I may not be your wise man but I know the life I'm a living
And you got your help from lots of other men.

I don't know just where I'll go
Guess I'll ride on down to Mexico, down to Mexico.

You say that you love me like your feeling got you sorry
But you gotta lie to keep this fool around
And if I'd stay I know that I'll just be around to laugh at
Since there's nothing else to keep me in your town.

I don't know just where I'll go
Guess I'll ride on down to Mexico, down to Mexico.

I don't know just where I'll go
Guess I'll ride on down to Mexico, down to Mexico...
