Tulsa Songtext
von Billy Joe Royal

When I left Tulsa, Jamie was an innocent young lady
God only knows why she gave herself to a guy like you
She called me crying and said she was gonna have your baby
But you just turned your back on her like all cowards do
And I swore I′d get you

Don't let the sun set on you in Tulsa
Don′t let the sun set on you in Tulsa
If the sun goes down on you and you're still here
You're going down too
Don′t let the sun set on you in Tulsa


Jamie′s the only thing I ever really cared for
And she don't deserve this kind of shame
She′s carrying a child that you're to blame for
But you just laughed and said ain′t no way he's gonna get your name

And I swore I′d get you
For what you're putting her through
And believe me brother, the only reason I ain't got you
Jamie cried and begged me not to

Don′t let the sun set on you in Tulsa
Don′t let the sun set on you in Tulsa
If the sun goes down on you and you're still here
You′re going down too
Don't let the sun set on you in Tulsa

Don′t let the sun set on you in Tulsa
Don't let the sun set on you in Tulsa
