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 prob'ly stop at lunch and give me a call But she'll just her 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 and call my name out low And she'll cry just to think I'd really leave her Though time and time I tried to tell her so She just didn't know I would really go
