I left Oklahoma driving in a Pontiac
D7
Just about to lose my mind
I was going to Arizona maybe on to California
G
Where the people all live so fine
My baby said I was crazy my momma called me lazy
D7
I was going to show ’em all this time
Cause you know I ain’t no fooling
I don’t need no more schooling
G
I was born to just walk the line
D7
Living on Tulsa time living on Tulsa time
Well you know I’ve been through it
When I set my watch back to it
G
Living on Tulsa time
Well there I was in Hollywood wishing
D7
I was doing good talking on the telephone line
But they don’t need me in the movies
G
And nobody sings my songs guess I’m just a wasting time
Well then I got to thinking man
D7
I’m really sinking and I really had a flash this time
I had no business leaving and nobody would be grieving
G
If I went back to Tulsa time
D7
Living on Tulsa time living on Tulsa time
Gonna set my watch back to it
I left Oklahoma driving in a Pontiac
