Tulsa Time Lyrics - Derek And The Dominos

I left Oklahoma, drivin' in a Pontiac 

Just about to lose my mind 

I was goin' on to Arizona maybe on to California 

Where the people all live so fine 

My baby said I was crazy, my momma called me lazy 

I was gonna show 'em all this time 

'Cause you know I ain't no fool and I don't need no more schoolin' 

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 

Well, there I was in Hollywood, wishin' I was doin' good 

Talkin' on the telephone line 

But they don't need me in the movies and nobody sing my songs 

Guess I'm just wastin' time 

Then I started thinkin' man, I'm really sinkin' 

And I really had a flash this time 

Oh, I had no business leavin' and nobody would be grievin' 

If I went on back to Tulsa time 

Livin' on Tulsa time, livin' on Tulsa time 

Gonna set my watch back to it 

'Cause you know I've been through it 

Livin' on Tulsa time
