I heard the train
In the Tulsa night
Calling out my name
Looking for a fightShe's come a long, long way
Got a longer way to go
So tell me how a train from Tulsa
Has got a right to knowShe sings a song
So sad and high
And the Tulsa queen
Don't ever lieAnd she don't care where she goes
Don't care where she's been
And the Tulsa queen ain't crying
'Cause I won't see you againAnd I want to ride
Like a Tulsa queen
Calling out to you
As she calls to me
As far away from Tulsa
As these ten wheels can beLately I speak
Your name too loud
Each time it comes up
In a crowd
And I know it when I do
The Tulsa queen and you
Are gone...
