[Ab]
[Abm]
[Ab]
I'm from Oklahoma, driving in a Pontiac just about to lose [Eb] my mind.
I was going to Arizona, maybe on to California, keep you all living [Ab] some mind.
My mama drove me crazy, my baby [Db] said I'm lazy, [Ab] gonna show them all [Eb] this time.
Cause you know I ain't no fool and I don't need no more than school, only [Ab] this one.
Living on Tulsa time, living on Tulsa [Eb] time.
Won't stick my arms back to it, cause you know they had me through it.
Living on [Ab] Tulsa time.
Oh, that's a long time.
Oh, [Db] [Eb] that's a long time.
[Abm] [Eb] [Ab]

[Abm] [Ab]
So, when I was in Hollywood, thinking I was doing good.
I did on the telephone [Eb] line.
They don't want me in the movies, ain't nobody sent me songs.
I'm gonna send my babies [Ab] to them fine.
So then I started thinking, then I got the weekend.
I really had the fastest time.
[Eb] Glad I had no business meeting, ain't nobody would be greeting.
See, I'm on [Ab] Tulsa time.
Living on Tulsa time, living on [Eb] Tulsa time.
Won't stick my arms back to it, cause I know they had me through it.
Living on Tulsa [Ab] time.
Living on Tulsa time.
Living on [Eb] Tulsa time.
Won't stick my arms back to it, cause' you know they had me through it.
Living on [Ab] Tulsa time.
