Lyric The Day That She Left Tulsa

(Mark D. Sanders/Steve Diamond)

We were a half mile high on the Ferris wheel
At our old county fair
I didn t even know we had trouble until
She told me way up there
That s when my life started spinning round
My world came crashing to the ground
The day that she left Tulsa

In a Chevy in a hurry in the pouring down rain
With the caution lights flashing in the passing lane
From a bridge I watched our dreams goin down the drain
In a Chevy in a hurry in the pouring down rain

No she wasn t showing yet but she d be by Christmas time
Up there like a fool I took for granted it was mine.
She never came out and told me that I was wrong
But all of a sudden the light came on
The day that she left Tulsa

In a Chevy in a hurry in the pouring down rain
With the caution lights flashing in the passing lane
From a bridge I watched our dreams goin down the drain
In a Chevy in a hurry in the pouring down rain

I guess she thought the truth would end up driving me away
Well she was wrong but I never had the chance to say
The day that she left Tulsa

In a Chevy in a hurry in the pouring down rain
In a Chevy in a hurry in the pouring down rain

In a Chevy in a hurry in the pouring down rain
With the caution lights flashing in the passing lane
From a bridge I watched our dreams goin down the drain
In a Chevy in a hurry in the pouring down rain

In a Chevy in a hurry in the pouring down rain
In a Chevy in a hurry in the pouring down rain
