Lyrics By the Time I Get to Phoenix - Andy Williams

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 says I’m leavin'
'cause I’ve left that girl so many time before
By the time I make Albuquerque she’ll be workin'
She’ll prob’ly 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
'tho' time and time I’ve tried to tell her so
She just didn’t know I would really go
