Tulsa Straight Ahead Songtext
von Asleep at the Wheel

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 a bus a-rocking
Just a-taking me away
But I′ll pass 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 that 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 talking ′cause I'll get there walking
If there′s just no other way
'Cause I read that sign on the old state line
T-U-L-S-A straight ahead
