Tulsa Time — текст песни (Eric Clapton)

Well, I left Oklahoma

Driving in a Pontiac,

Just about to lose my mind.

I was going to Arizona,

Maybe on to California

Where people all live so fine.



My mother says I`m crazy,

My baby calls me lazy,

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`.

I was born to just walk the line.



Living on Tulsa Time.

Living on Tulsa Time.

Gonna set my watch back to it

`Cause you know that I`ve been through it.

Living on Tulsa Time.



So there I was in Hollywood,

Thinking I was doing good,

Talking on the telephone line.

They don`t want me in the movies

And nobody sings my songs;

My mama says my baby`s doing fine.



So then I started winking,

Then I started thinking

That I really had a flash this time.

That I had no bussiness leaving,

And nobody would be grieving;

You see I`m on Tulsa time.



Chorus
