When I left Tulsa she was still an innocent lady Lord only knows why she ever loved a guy like you She called me crying and she said she was having your baby You turned your back on her and broke her heart in two And I swore I'd get you For what you're putting her through And the only reason I aint got you She begged me not to, says she loves you Chorus: But don't let the sun set on you in Tulsa Don't let the sun set on you in Tulsa Now if that sun goes down on you And if you're still here well you're going down too. Don't let the sun go down on you in Tulsa She's the only thing I've ever really cared for No, She don't deserve this kind of shame She carries a burden around that you know you're to blame for You just laughed and said they ain't getting your name Now your gonna pay For what you're putting her through and the only reason I ain't got you She begged me not to, says she loves you But I ain't through with you yet Chorus Chorus
