Tulsa Time

Living on Tulsa time

I left Oklahoma
Driving 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 called me crazy
My mama said I'm lazy
I was gonna show 'em all this time
'Cause ya know I ain't no fool no
I don't need no more school no
I was born to just walk the line

Living on Tulsa time
Living on Tulsa time
Well ya know I've been through it
When I set my watch back to it
Living on Tulsa time

Well there I was in Hollywood
Wishing I was doing good
Talking on the telephone line
They don't need me in the movies
And nobody sings my songs
I guess I'm just wasting time
But then I got to thinking
Man I'm really sinking
And I really had a flash this time
I had no business leaving
And nobody would be grieving
If I went on back to Tulsa time

Living on Tulsa time
Living on Tulsa time
Gonna set my watch back to it
'Cause ya know I've been through it
Living on Tulsa time
Living on Tulsa time
Living on Tulsa time
Well ya know I've been through it
When I set my watch back to it
Living on Tulsa time

Gonna set my watch back to it
'Cause ya know I've been through it
Living on Tulsa time
