Alan Ladd - Tulsa Time Lyrics

Well 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 going to show them all this time
'Cause you know I ain't no fool and I don't need no more schooling
I was born to just walk the line

Living on Tulsa time
Living on Tulsa time
Well, you know I've been through it
When I set my watch back to it
Living on Tulsa time

Well there I was in Hollywood
Wishing I was doing good
Talking on the telephone line
But they don't need me in the movies and nobody sings my songs
Guess I'm just wasting time

Then I got to thinking
Man I'm really sinking
And I really had a flash this time
I had no business feeling and nobody would be grieving
If I went on back to Tulsa time

Living on Tulsa time
Living on Tulsa time
Gonna set my watch back to it
'Cause you know I've been through it
Living on Tulsa time

Living on Tulsa time
Living on Tulsa time
Gonna set my watch back to it
'Cause you know I've been through it
Living on Tulsa time
Living on Tulsa time
Living on Tulsa time
