Lyrics
Theres a girl with the red dress on
Some folks call her Dinah
Stoled my heart away from me
Way down in Louisiana
Take me back to Tulsa, I’m too young to marry
Take me back to Tulsa, I’m too young to marry
The big bee sucks the blossom
And the little bee makes the honey
Poor man throws the cotton
And the rich man makes the money
Take me back to Tulsa, I’m too young to marry
Take me back to Tulsa, I’m too young to marry
Would can talk to Susy, would can talk to Susy
Would can talk to Susy, now can talk to Susy
Take me back to Tulsa, I’m too young to marry
Take me back to Tulsa, I’m too young to marry
Always wear this great big smile
We never do look sour
We travel all over this country wide
Playing music by the hour
Take me back to Tulsa, I’m too young to marry
Take me back to Tulsa, I’m too young to marry
Take me back to Tulsa, I’m too young to marry
Take me back to Tulsa, I’m too young to marry
