Tulsa Time is a song written by Danny Flower's and recorded by Don Williams in 1978. [C] [Bb] [Am] [G] [C] [C] I left Oklahoma, driving in a Pontiac, just about to lose my [G7] mind. [G7] I was going to Arizona, maybe on to California. Where the people all live so [C] fine. My baby said I'm crazy, my momma called me lazy. I was gonna show 'em all this [G7] time. [G7] 'Cause you know I ain't no fool and I don't need no more schooling. I was born to just walk the [C] line. Living on Tulsa time. Living on Tulsa [G7] time. [G7] Well you know I've been through it. When I set my watch back to it. Living on Tulsa [C] time. Well there I was in Hollywood, wishing I was doing good. Talking on the telephone [G7] line. [G7] But they don't need me in the movies, and nobody sings my songs. Guess I'm just wasting [C] time. Well then I got to thinking, man I'm really sinking. And I really had a flash this [G7] time. [G7] I had no business leaving and nobody would be grieving. If I went on back to Tulsa [C] time. Living on Tulsa time. Living on Tulsa [G7] time. [G7] Going to set my watch back to it. Cause you know I've been through it. Living on Tulsa [C] time.
