Lyrics

Tulsa County Blue

My nights have been lonely since I've been in Tulsa country

And I really don't know what I'm gonna do

I just might take a trip somewhere along the southern border

'Cause I know I've gotta get away from you

I don't know - just where I'll go

I believe I'll ride it down to Mexico

Down to Mexico

Got your note in Charleston, said you needed my assistance

But when I got there you didn't need me then

I may not be a wise man but I know this life you're leading

You learned your tricks from lots of other men
