By the Time I Get to Phoenix Lyrics
By the time I get to Phoenix, he'll be rising
He'll find the note I left hangin' on his door
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 prob'ly 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 and softly call my name out low
Might even cry, just to think I'd really leave
Though time an' time I tried to tell him so
He just didn't know that I would really go
He'll find the note I left hangin' on his door
He'll laugh when he reads the part that says I'm leavin'
'Cause I've left that man so many times before
He'll prob'ly stop at lunch and give me a call
But he'll just hear that phone keep on ringin'
Off the wall, that's all
He'll turn and softly call my name out low
Might even cry, just to think I'd really leave
Though time an' time I tried to tell him so
He just didn't know that I would really go
