By The Time I Get To Phoenix

By The Time I Get To Phoenix - Ray Conniff & The Singers

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 working

She'll prob'ly stop at lunch and give me a call a call

But she'll just hear that phone keep on ringin'

Keep on ringin'

Off the wall that's all

By the time

I make Oklahoma she'll be sleepin'

Sleepin'

She'll turn softly and call my name out loud

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

I would really go
