- Tulsa Time Lyrics / with translationsI 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
and 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
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
and 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
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
