Tulsa There's a detour sign on the road that winds Out on the broad highway But the place for me is the sign I see T U L S A straight ahead There's a railroad crossing and the bus-a rockin' Just-a takin' me away But I'll pa** the time, till I see that sign T U L S A straight ahead I'm gonna settle down when I reach that city fair I'm homeward bound and I know I'll soon be there
Where the tall corn grows and the black all flows In old Oak, K L A In the middle of it all I hear the call T U L S A straight ahead I'm gonna settle down when I reach that city fair I'm homeward bound and I know I'll soon be there Well, there's no use talkin', 'cause I'll get there walkin' If there's is no other way 'Cause I read that sign on the old state line T U L S A straight ahead
