When i leDft Tulsa,Jamie wGas an innocent young ladyD  
God only knows why she gave hersGelf to a guy like Dyou
She called me crying,said shGe was going to have your babyD  
But you just turned your back on hGer like alC/Gl cowards do
I sworAe i'd get you for what you're putting hDer through
And the only reason i ain't Ggot you
Is Jamie cried and begAged me not to
She still loves you for some reasonD  
[Chorus]
Don't let Dthe sun set oGn you in TulsaD  
Don't let the sun set oGn you in TulsaD  
If the sun goes down on yGou
If you're Dstill here you're going dowGn to
Don't let Dthe sun set oGn you in TulsaD  
Jamie's tEhe only thing i ever Areally cared forE  
She don't deserve this kiAnd of shameE  
She's carrying a child that yoAu're to blame forE  
You just laughed and said there ain't no way he's Dgonna get your name
I sworBe i'd get you for what you're putting hEer through
And the only reason i ain't Agot you
Is Jamie cried and begBged me not to
