Standard (EADGBE)

I left Oklahoma, Driving in a pontiac

Just about to lose my m ind.

I was going to Arizona, Maybe on to california

Where people all live so f ine.

My mother says I’m crazy, my baby calls me lazy

But I’m gonna show them all this t ime

’cause you know I ain’t no fool and i don’t need no more damn schoolin’

I was born to just walk the l ine.

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 t imeChorus

So there I was in hollywood, thinking I was doing good

Talking on the telephone li ne

They don’t want me in the movies and nobody sings my songs,

My mama says my baby’s doing f ine.

So then I started winking, then I started thinking,

That I really had a flash this t ime

That I had no business leaving, and nobody would be grieving,

You see I’m on tulsa t ime.

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 t ime
