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 hanging on her door |
She’ll laugh when she reads the part that says I’m leaving |
'Cause I’ve left that girl so many times before |
By the time I make Albuquerque she’ll be working |
She’ll prob’ly stop at lunch and give me a call |
But she’ll just hear that phone keep on ringing off the wall that’s all |
By the time I make Oklahoma she’ll be sleeping |
She’ll turn softly and call my name out low |
And she’ll cry just to think I’d really leave her |
Though time and time I’ve tried to tell her |
So she just didn’t know I would really go |
