Lyrics: |
Well, I left Oklahoma Driving in a Pontiac Just about to lose my mind I was going to Arizona Maybe on to California Where people all live so fine My mother says I'm crazy My baby calls me lazy But I'm gonna show them all this time 'Cause you know I ain't no fool and I don't need no more damn schoolin' I was born to just walk the line Living on Tulsa Time Living on Tulsa Time Gonna set my watch back to it 'Cause you know that I've been through it Living on Tulsa Time So there I was in Hollywood Thinking I was doing good Talking on the telephone line They don't want me in the movies And nobody sings my songs My mama says my baby's doing fine So then I started winking Then I started thinking That I really had a flash this time That I had no business leaving And nobody would be grieving You see I'm on Tulsa time Living on Tulsa Time Living on Tulsa Time Gonna set my watch back to it 'Cause you know that I've been through it Living on Tulsa Time |
