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 too many times before

By the time,I make Albuquerque

she'll be working

She'll probably stop at lunch and give me a call

she'll just hear that the 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

I've tried to tell her so
