Lyrics

1:09Well I left Oklahoma
1:11Driving in a Pontiac
1:13Just about to lose my mind
1:16I was going to Arizona
1:18Maybe on to California
1:20Where people all live so fine
1:24My mother says I'm crazy
1:25My baby calls me lazy
1:27But I'm gonna show them all this time
1:31'Cause you know I ain't no fool and
1:32I don't need no more damn schoolin'
1:35I was born to just walk the line
1:38Living on Tulsa Time
1:42Living on Tulsa Time
1:45Gonna set my watch back to it
1:47'Cause you know that I've been through it
1:49Living on Tulsa Time
2:27So there I was in Hollywood
2:28Thinking I was doing good
2:31Talking on the telephone line
2:34They don't want me in the movies
2:36And nobody sings my songs;
2:38My mama says my baby's doing fine
2:41So then I started winking
2:43Then I started thinking
2:45That I really had a flash this time
2:48That I had no bussiness leaving
2:50And nobody would be grieving;
2:52You see I'm on Tulsa time
2:56Living on Tulsa Time
3:00Living on Tulsa Time
3:03Gonna set my watch back to it
3:05'Cause you know that I've been through it
3:07Living on Tulsa Time
3:10Living on Tulsa Time
3:14Living on Tulsa Time
3:18Gonna set my watch back to it
3:19'Cause you know that I've been through it
3:21Living 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 baby's 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
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
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
