Tulsa Time Songtext
von Don Williams

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 was crazy
My mama called me lazy
I was gonna show ′em all this time
'Cause you know I ain't no foolin′
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 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
But they don′t need me in the movies
And nobody sings my songs
Guess, I′m just a wastin' time

Well, 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
Gonna set my watch back to it
′Cause you know I 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 been through
Livin′ on Tulsa time
