By The Time I Get To Phoenix (Album Version) - Susannah McCorkle

By the time I get to Phoenix

You be raisen

She'll find the note

I left hanging on her door

She'll laugh when she

Reads the part

That says I'm leaving 'Cause I've

Left that gal 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 just hear

That phone keep on ringing

Off the wall that's all

That's all

By the time

I make Oklahoma she'll be sleeping

She'll turn softly

Call my name out low And

She'll cry just to think

I'd really leave her

Though time and time

I've tried to tell her so She

Just didn't know I would really go
