I left Oklahoma driving in a Pontiac
Just about to lose my mind
I was going' to Arizona maybe on to California
Where the people all live so fine
My mama says I'm lazy my baby thinks I'm crazy
Gonna show 'em all this time
Now you know I ain't a' foolin' 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 'cause 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
They don't need me in the movies and nobody sings my songs
I 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' then nobody would be grievin'
If I went on back to Tulsa time
Livin' on Tulsa time Livin' on Tulsa time
Well you know I've been through it 'cause 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
They don't need me in the movies and nobody sings my songs
I 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' then nobody would be grievin'
If I went on back to Tulsa time
Livin' on Tulsa time Livin' on Tulsa time
Well you know I've been through it 'cause I set my watch back to it
Livin' on Tulsa time
Livin' on Tulsa time Livin' on Tulsa time
Well you know I've been through it 'cause I set my watch back to it
Livin' on Tulsa time
Livin' on Tulsa time Livin' on Tulsa time
Well you know I've been through it 'cause I set my watch back to it
Livin' on Tulsa time
