I left oklahoma driving in a pontiac
Just about to lose my mind
I was going to arizona maybe on to california
Where the people all live so fine

My baby said I was crazy
My moma called me lazy
I was gonna showem all this time

Cause you know I aint no fooling
I don't need no more schoolin
I was born to just walk the line

Chorus:
Livin on tulsa time, livin on tulsa time
Well you know Ive been through it
When I set my watch back to it
Livin on tulsa time

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 Im just wasting time

Well then I got to thinking
Man Im 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

Repeat chorus
