Introdução:
G
Well, I left Oklahoma, driving in a Pontiac,
D
just about to lose my mind.
I was going to Arizona, maybe on to California,
G
where people all live so fine.
G
My mother says I'm crazy, my baby calls me lazy,
D
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'.
G
I was born to just walk the line.
D
Living on Tulsa time, living on Tulsa time,
gonna set my watch back to it,
G
'cause you know that I've been through it, living on Tulsa time.
G
So there I was in Hollywood, thinking I was doing good,
D
talking on the telephone line.
They don't want me in the movies and nobody sings my songs,
G
my mama says my baby's doing fine.
So then I started winking, then I started thinking,
D
that I really had a flash this time.
That I had no business leaving, and nobody would be grieving,
G
you see I'm on Tulsa time.
D
Living on Tulsa time, living on Tulsa time,
gonna set my watch back to it,
G
'cause you know that I've been through it, living on Tulsa time.
D
Living on Tulsa time, living on Tulsa time,
gonna set my watch back to it,
G
'cause you know that I've been through it, living on Tulsa time.
