Don Williams Tulsa Time Lyrics

Tulsa Time Lyrics

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 Momma called me lazy

I was goin' to show 'em all this time

'Cause you know I ain't no fool

An' 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 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've 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've been through it

Livin' on Tulsa time
