Oh, I was only twenty four hours from Tulsa,
Ah, only one day away from your arms;

Additional quotes by Hal David

Day after day
There are girls at the office
And men will always be men.
Don't send him off with your hair still in curlers;
You may not see him again.

Just tryin' to build a peaceful life where love is free to grow.
