By The Time I Get To Phoenix Lyrics
By The Time I Get To Phoenix - Johnny Rivers <br />
<br />
By the time I get to Phoenix she'll be rising <br />
She'll find the note I left hangin' on her door <br />
She'll laugh when she reads the part that says I'm leavin' <br />
'Cause I've left that girl so many times before <br />
<br />
By the time I make Albuquerque she'll be working <br />
She'll prob'ly stop at lunch and give me a call <br />
But she'll just hear that phone keep on ringin' <br />
Off the wall that's all <br />
<br />
By the time I make Oklahoma she'll be sleepin' <br />
She'll turn softly and call my name out loud <br />
And she'll cry just to think I'd really leave her <br />

Tho' time and time I try to tell her so <br />
She just didn't know I would really go. <br />
