Lyrics

0:34Well I left oklahoma
0:35Driving in a pontiac
0:37Just about to lose my mind
0:39I was going to arizona
0:43Maybe on to california
0:45Where people all live so fine
0:49My mother says I'm crazy
0:50My baby calls me lazy
0:52But I'm gonna show them all this time
0:56Cause you know I ain't no fool and
0:58i don't need no more damn schoolin
1:00I was born to just walk the line
1:04Living on tulsa time
1:07Living on tulsa time
1:12Gonna set my watch back to it
1:14Cause you know that I've been through it
1:15Living on tulsa time
1:37So there I was in hollywood
1:39Thinking I was doing good
1:40Talking on the telephone line
1:44They don't want me in the movies
1:46And nobody sings my songs;
1:48My mama says my babys doing fine
1:52So then I started winking
1:54Then I started thinking
1:56That I really had a flash this time
1:59That I had no bussiness leaving
2:01And nobody would be grieving;
2:03You see I'm on tulsa time
Well  I left oklahoma
Driving in a pontiac
Just about to lose my mind
I was going to arizona
Maybe on to california
Where people all live so fine
My mother says I'm crazy
My baby calls me lazy
But I'm gonna show them all this time
Cause you know I ain't no fool and
i don't need no more damn schoolin
I was born to just walk the line
Living on tulsa time
Living on tulsa time
Gonna set my watch back to it
Cause you know that I've been through it
Living on tulsa time
So there I was in hollywood
Thinking I was doing good
Talking on the telephone line
They don't want me in the movies
And nobody sings my songs;
My mama says my babys doing fine
So then I started winking
Then I started thinking
That I really had a flash this time
That I had no bussiness leaving
And nobody would be grieving;
You see I'm on tulsa time
