| Dearest darling | |
| I had to write to say that I won't be home any more | |
| For something happened to me | |
| While I was driving home and I'm not the same any more | |
| Oh, I was only twenty four hours from Tulsa | |
| Ah, only one day away from your arms | |
| I saw a welcoming light | |
| And stopped to rest for the night | |
| And that is when I saw her | |
| As I pulled in outside of the small hotel she was there | |
| And so I walked up to her | |
| Asked where I could get something to eat and she showed me where | |
| Oh, I was only twenty four hours from Tulsa | |
| Ah, only one day away from your arms | |
| She took me to the café | |
| I asked her if she would stay | |
| She said, "Okay" | |
| Oh, I was only twenty four hours from Tulsa | |
| Ah, only one day away from your arms | |
| The jukebox started to play | |
| And night time turned into day | |
| As we were dancing closely | |
| All of a sudden I lost control as I held her charms | |
| And I caressed her, kissed her | |
| Told her I'd die before I would let her out of my arms | |
| Oh, I was only twenty four hours from Tulsa | |
| Ah, only one day away from your arms | |
| I hate to do this to you | |
| But I love somebody new | |
| What can I do | |
| When I can never, never, never go home again? |
| Dearest darling | |
| I had to write to say that I won' t be home any more | |
| For something happened to me | |
| While I was driving home and I' m not the same any more | |
| Oh, I was only twenty four hours from Tulsa | |
| Ah, only one day away from your arms | |
| I saw a welcoming light | |
| And stopped to rest for the night | |
| And that is when I saw her | |
