(verse 1) I left Oklahoma driving in a pontiac, Just about to lose my mind, I was going to Arizona maybe on to California, Were the people all live so fine, My baby said I was crazy, My moma called me lazy, I was gonna show'em all this time, Cause you know I ain't no fooling, I don't need no more school'in, 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, (lead - ) (verse 2) Where there I was in Hollywood, Wishing I was doing good, Talking on telephone line, But they don't need me in the movies, And nobody sings my songs, Guess I'm just wasting time, Well then I got to thinking, Man I'm really sinking, And I really had a flash this time, I had no business leaving, And nobody would be grieving, If I went on back to tulsa time, (chorus) 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, (chorus) 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, Outro -
