Lyrics By the Time I Get to Phoenix (single edit) - Isaac Hayes



By the time I get to Phoenix she′ll be rising
She'll find the note 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 prob′ly stop at lunch and give me a call
But 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 loud
And she'll cry just to think I′d really leave her
Tho' time and time I try to tell her so
She just didn′t know I would really go
