By the Time I Get to Phoenix
By the time I get to Phoenix she'll be risingShe'll find the note I left hangin' on her doorShe'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 workingShe'll probably stop at lunch and give me a callBut 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 lowAnd she'll cry just to think I'd really leave herTho' time and time I try to tell her soShe just didn't know I would really go.
