Julian Taylor & Jim Cuddy - Tulsa Time Lyrics

Julian Taylor & Jim Cuddy Lyrics

"Tulsa Time"
(originally by Don Williams)

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, "That's crazy"
My mama called me, "Lazy"
I was gonna show 'em all this time
'Cause you know I ain't no foolin'
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
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
