By the Time I Get to Phoenix
By the time, I get to Phoenix, she'll be rising
She'll find the note I left, hangin' on her door
She'll laugh, when she reads the part, that says, I'm leavin'
'Cause, I've left that girl, so many times before
By the time, I make Albuquerque, she'll be working
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 loud
And she'll cry, just to think, I'd really leave her
Though, time and time, I tried to tell her, so
She just didn't know, I would really go
She'll find the note I left, hangin' on her door
She'll laugh, when she reads the part, that says, I'm leavin'
'Cause, I've left that girl, so many times before
By the time, I make Albuquerque, she'll be working
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 loud
And she'll cry, just to think, I'd really leave her
Though, time and time, I tried to tell her, so
She just didn't know, I would really go
