By the time I get to Phoenix, she'll be rising
She'll find my 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 Albuquerque
She'll be working
She'll probably stop at lunch
And give me a call
But she'll just hear the phone
Keep on ringing
Off the wall
That's all
By the time I make Oklahoma
She'll be sleeping
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
I've tried to tell her so
She just didn't know
I would really go
