By the Time I Get to Phoenix

[Verse 1]
By the time I get to Phoenix
He'll be risin'
He'll find the note I left hangin'
On his door
He'll laugh to read the part
That says I'm leavin'
'Cause I've left that man so many times before

[Verse 2]
By the time I make Albuquerque
He'll be workin'
He'll prob'ly stop for lunch
And call my phone
But he'll just hear that phone keep on ringin'
Missed call
That's all

[Verse 3]
By the time I make Oklahoma
He'll be risin'
He'll turn softly
And he'll call my name out low
He'll cry to think, to think that I'd really leave him
Though time and time I've tried to tell him so
He just didn't know
I would really go
