Oh, I was only 24 hours from Tulsa
She said, "Okay"
What can I do and I can never
I was driving home and I'm not the same anymore
All of a sudden I lost control as I held her charms
She took me to a cafe I asked her if she would stay
I saw a welcoming light and stopped to rest for the night
Told her I'd die before I would let her out of my arms
And that is when I saw her as I pulled in outside of a small hotel
I hate to do this to you
The jukebox started to play
Oh, I was only 24 hours from Tulsa
Ah only one day away from your arms
Ah only one day away from your arms
And nighttime turned into day as we were dancing closely
But I love somebody new
'Cause something happened to me while
Oh, I was only 24 hours from Tulsa
Ah only one day away from your arms
Ah only one day away from your arms
Asked where I could get something to eat and she showed me where
She was there and so I walked up to her
Oh, I was only 24 hours from Tulsa
And I caressed her, kissed her
