Tulsa Time I left Oklahoma, drivin' in a Pontiac Just about to loose 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 mama called me lazy I would gonna show'em all this time Cause you know I ain't no fool And I need no more schoolin' I was born to just walk the line
Chorus:
Living on Tulsa time, living on Tulsa time Well you know I have been through it When I set my watch back to it Living on Tulsa time
Well, there I was in Hollywood, wishing I was doing good Talking on the telephone line But they don't need me in the movies And nobody sings my songs Yes, I'm just a waste of time Well, then I got to thinking, man I'm really sinking And I really had a flash this time I had no business leaving and nobody would be grievin' If I went on back to Tulsa time Repeat Chorus
