Tulsa ’67 Brody Grant (Ft. Original Broadway Cast of The Outsiders & Sky Lakota-Lynch)

[PONYBOY, spoken]
When I stepped out into the bright sunlight from the darkness of the movie house, I had only two things on my mind: Paul Newman and a ride home

[sung]
I've never been out of Tulsa before
I wonder what it would be like
I've never known anybody to leave
Most people get stuck here for life
My brother could've been a football star
People say he had a ticket out
My other brother suffers from a broken heart
From a girl hе loved who up and moved away

We got no parеnts, we fend for ourselves
There's no one to show us the way
My brothers are trying, but they're always out
Just working their poor lives away
My name is Ponyboy, the youngest of the three
I know there's so much more to life than what's in front of me
So I sneak into the movies just to glimpse the other side
Rather take a risk and see it than to never even try

When I am looking up and Newman's on the screen
The entire world just melts away
And for a moment I'm not worried 'bout a thing
I just sit back and let the movie start to play
