By the Time I Get To Phoenix

By the time I get to Phoenix
He'll be risin'
He'll find the note I left hangin'
On his door
And he'll laugh when he reads the part
That says I'm leavin'
'Cause I've left that man so many times before

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

By the time I make Oklahoma
He'll be sleepin'
He'll turn softly and call my name out low
And he'll cry just to think I'd really leave him
Though time and time again I've tried to tell him so
He just didn't know
I'd really go

By the time I make Oklahoma
He'll be sleepin'
He'll turn softly and call my name out low
And he'll cry just to think I'd really leave him
Though time and time again I've tried to tell him so
He just didn't know
I'd really go
