 I left Oklahoma, drivin' in a Pontiac
Just about to lose my mindI was goin' to ArizonaMaybe on to CaliforniaWhere the people all live so fine
My baby thought I'ze crazyMy mama called me lazyI was gonna show 'em all this time'Cause you know I ain't no fool
No I don't need no more school
I was born to just walk the line
Livin' on Tulsa timeLivin' on Tulsa timeWell, you know I've been through itGonna set my watch back to itLivin' on Tulsa time
Dobro bridge 
There I was in HollywoodWishin' I was doin' goodTalkin' on the telephone lineThey don't need me in the moviesAin't nobody sings my songsGuess I'm just wastin' time
Then I got to thinkin'Man, I'm really sinkin'Really had a flash this timeI had no business leavin'And nobody would be grievin'If I went on back to Tulsa time
Livin' on Tulsa timeLivin' on Tulsa timeGonna set my watch back to it'Cause you know I've been through itLivin' on Tulsa time
Livin' on Tulsa timeLivin' on Tulsa timeGonna set my watch back to itGonna set my watch back to it Livin' on Tulsa time

 That Georgia sun was blood-red and goin' down
That Georgia sun was blood red and goin' down
Daddy said, "Now come girlWe're headed down the road to Augusta"And frankly through his clenched teethHe called Mama's name and then he cussed her
He said, "Girl, you're youngBut some dude has come along and stole your mother"But you can't steal a willin' mind'Cause mama's always lookin' for a lover
That Georgia sun was blood-red and goin' downThat Georgia sun was blood-red and goin' down
With dusty tear drops on his faceMy daddy cried an' big steps he was takin'Halfway runnin' to keep upMy shorter legs were so tired and shakin'
"Where did I go wrong, girl?Why would she leave us both this way?"At times like these, a child of tenNever knows exactly what to say
That Georgia sun was blood-red and goin' downThat Georgia sun was blood-red and goin' down
We searched in every bar-roomAnd honky-tonk as wellAnd finally daddy found themAnd Lord, you know, the rest is hard to tell
He sent me out to waitBut scared, I looked back through the doorAnd daddy left them bothSoakin' up the sawdust on the floor
That Georgia sun was blood-red and goin' downThat Georgia sun was blood-red and goin' downThat Georgia sun was blood-red and goin' downThat Georgia sun was blood-red and goin' down

Little Miss Can't Be Wrong

 

Intro
2 bangs and a bit

It's been a whole lot easier since the bitch left town
It's been a whole lot happier without her face around
Nobody upstairs gonna stomp and shout
Nobody at the back door gonna throw my laundry out
She hold the shotgun while you do-si-do
She want one man made of Hercules and Cyrano
Been a whole lot easier since the bitch is gone
Little Miss, Little Miss, Little Miss can't be wrong
Little Miss, Little Miss, Little Miss can't be wrong
Ain't nobody gonna bow no more when you sound your gong
Little Miss, Little Miss, Little Miss can't be wrong
What'cha gonna do to get into another one of these rock 'n' roll songs?

Instrumental bridge 

Other peoples thoughts they ain't your hand-me-downs
Would it be so bad to simply turn around
You cook so well, all nice and French
You do your brain surgery too, mama
With your monkey wrench
Little Miss, Little Miss, Little Miss can't be wrong
Ain't nobody gonna bow no more when you sound your gong
Little Miss, Little Miss, Little Miss can't be wrong
What'cha gonna do to get into another one of these rock 'n' roll songs?
Yeah, ya can't be wrong, no, no, no
Can't be wrong
Oh, ya can't be wrong, can't be wrong
You can't be wrong, oh never
I hope them cigarettes are gonna make you cough
I hope you hear this song and it pissed you off
I take that back, I hope you're doin' fine
And if I had a dollar I might give you 99
Little Miss, Little Miss, Little Miss can't be wrong
Ain't nobody gonna bow no more when you sound your gong
Little Miss, Little Miss, Little Miss can't be wrong
What'cha gonna do to get into another one of these rock 'n' roll songs?
Oh, Little Miss, Little Miss, Little Miss, Little Miss can't be wrong
No, no, no, no, no, no, no
Oh, you can't be wrong
No, you can't be wrong, you can't be wrong
Oh, Little Miss, Little Miss, Little Miss, Little Miss can't be wrong, no
Oh, oh, oh, you can't be wrong
Little Miss, Little Miss, Little Miss, Little Miss can't be wrong
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, ooh
