Tulsa yesterday, tomorrow forever Today I think I'll take my own sweet time You can tell by my blues that I'm no beginner Or just look into my eyes I learned my lessons in the days back in the dogwood Left some footprints in the deep red clay Found my way past the temptations of plenty Let the sound take me all the way It's a low down dirty sorrow to know the real pain of love Some things you own, some you borrow until you let it go Find a garden let it grow and what you find Let it shine, let your chariot swing low West wind blow, my blood runs cold from to much trouble West wind blow, howl through my bones tonight Tulsa yesterday, tomorrow forever Today I think I'll take my own sweet time You can tell by my shoes that I am a believer Or just look into my eyes
