The Tulsa Shuffle (Revisited) - The Tractors

Back before the Beatles

Back before Elvis

Back when Hank was just learnin' how to sing

Tulsa was dancin' to Bob and Johnny Lee Wills

A thing they call Western Swing

Somethin' in the water

Somethin' in the blood

Somethin' 'bout the way the wind blows

It don't mean a thing if it ain't got that swing

And this am the way it goes

Up north in Chicago

You've got your authentic blues bands

Way down yonder in New Orleans

They've got a thing they call Dixieland

All around this whole wide world

There's one thing that everybody knows

All God's children love the Tulsa shuffle

And this am the way it goes

I've been up

I've been down

Headed straight and turned around

I've been up a tree

Out on a limb

Amused abused

Enlightened and confused

I've been lost and I've been born again

Through it all

When it's all said and done

There's one thing that everybody knows

All God's children love the Tulsa shuffle

And this am the way it goes
