By The Time I Get To Phoenix

By The Time I Get To Phoenix


By the time I get to Phoenix she'll be risin'
She'll find the note I left hangin' on her door
She'll laugh when she reads the part that say I'm leaving
Cause I've left that girl so many times before

By the time I make Albuquerque she'll be workin'
She'll probably stop at lunch and give me a call
But she'll just hear that phone keep on ringin'
Off the wall
That's all

By the time I make Oklahoma she'll be sleepin'
She'll turn softly and call my name out low
And she'll cry just to think I'd really leave her
But time and time I've tried to tell her so
She just didn't know I would really go
