Lyrics By The Time I Get To Phoenix - Roger Whittaker

By the time I get to Phoenix she'll be rising
She'll find my note I left hangin' on her door
She'll laugh when she reads the parts 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 probaly stop at lunch and give me a call
But she'll just hear that phone keep right 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
She'll cry just to think I'd really leave her
Though time and time again I've tried to tell her so
She just didn't know I would really go
I would really go
I would really go
