Johnny Rivers - By the Time I Get to Phoenix Şarkı Sözleri

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
She'll prob'ly stop at lunch
and give me a call
But she'll just hear
that phone keep on ringin'
Off the wall that's all

By the time I make Oklahoma
she'll be sleepin'
She'll turn softly
and call my name 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 didn't know that I would really go
She just didn't know...
