David Houston By The Time I Get To Phoenix Lyrics

By The Time I Get To Phoenix Lyrics

By the time I get to Phoenix she'll be rising



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 girl so many times before



By the time I make Albuquerque she'll be working



She'll probably stop at lounch and give me a call



But she'll just hear that phone keep on ringing off the wall 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
