By The Time I Get To Phoenix Johnny Rivers

By the time I get to phoenix
She'll be risin'
She'll find the note
That I left hangin' on her door
She'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 working
She'll probably stop at lunch
And give me a call
But she'll hear that empty 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 loud
And she'll cry to think
That i'd really leave her
Tho' time and time again
I've tried to tell her so

She didn't know that I would really go

She just didn't know...
