I left Oklahoma drivin€™ in a Pontiac
Just about to lose my mind
I was goin€™ on to Arizona, maybe on to California
Where all the people 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
