Twenty-Four Hours from Tulsa Ian & Sylvia

[Verse 1]
Dearest darlin'
I had to write to say that I won't be home anymore
Something happened to me
While I was drivin' home, and I'm not the same anymore

[Chorus]
I was only twenty-four hours from Tulsa
Only one day away from your arms

[Post-Chorus]
I saw the welcomin' light
And stopped to rest for the night
And that is when I saw her

[Verse 2]
As I pulled in outside of a small motel she was there
So I walked up to her
Asked where I could get something to eat
And she showed me wherе

[Chorus]
I was only twenty-four hours from Tulsa
Only one day away from your arms

[Post-Chorus]
She took mе to a café
I asked her if she would stay
She said, "Okay"
