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
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
I'm 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
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
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
I'm 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
