"Home Sweet Oklahoma" - from the Leon Russell and the Shelter People album (1971) - Isolated Vocals

This song was recorded at Muscle Shoals Studios in Alabama, which enhanced the soulfulness of Russell's delivery.
When I was a young man barely seventeen
I went out to Hollywood to chase my dream
Dusty Oklahoma was all I'd ever seen
And I was getting older
The memories of the Greyhound will fade and quickly pass
In lonely restaurant windows the empty hourglass
Reflects the human hunger for the question never asked
I only had my time for spending
Yeah, but I'm going back to Tulsa one more time
Yes, I'm going back to Tulsa just one more time
Yes, I'm going back to Tulsa one more time
I've got home sweet Oklahoma's on my mind
Yes it is
Whoa, I'm growing younger now and how I just don't know
But the feeling’s much more happy and life is nice and slow
The past is just some photographs of the good friends that I know
And my love is so much better
Yes it is
Yeah, I'm going back to Tulsa one more time
Yes, I'm going on down to Tulsa just one more time
Yes, I'm going back to Tulsa one more time
Whoa, I've got home sweet Oklahoma's on my mind
Whoa, I'm going back to Tulsa one more time
Yes, I'm going on down to Tulsa just one more time
Yes, I'm going back to Tulsa one more time
Yeah, I've got home sweet Oklahoma's on my mind ...
