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.
