"Tulsa Time" lyrics

"Tulsa Time"

I left Oklahoma drivin' in a Pontiac
Just about to lose my mind
I was goin' to Arizona
Maybe on to California
Where the people all live so fine

My baby said I's crazy
My momma called me lazy
I was goin' to show 'em all this time
'Cause you know I ain't no fool, and I don't need no more schoolin'
I was born to just walk the line

Livin' on Tulsa time
Livin' on Tulsa time
Well, you know that I been through it when I set my watch back to it
I'm livin' on Tulsa time

Well, there I was in Hollywood, wishin' I was doin' good
Talkin' on a telephone lines
But they don't need me in the movies
And nobody sings my songs
Guess I'm just a wastin' time

Then I got to thinkin'
Man, I'm really sinkin'
And I really had a flash this time
I had no business leavin', and nobody would be grievin'
If I went on back to Tulsa time

Livin' on Tulsa time
Livin' on Tulsa time
Well, you know that I been through it when I set my watch back to it
I'm livin' on Tulsa time

I'm livin' on Tulsa time
Livin' on Tulsa time
Well, you know that I been through it when I set my watch back to it
I'm livin' on Tulsa time
