Nat Stuckey By The Time I Get To Phoenix
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 reach Albuquerque she'll be working
She'll probably stop at lounch and give me a call
But she'll just hear that phone keep on ringing off the wall that's all
By the time I reach Oklahoma she'll be sleeping
She'll turn softly and call my name out low
She'll cry just to think I'd really leave her
But time and time I've tried to tell her so she just didn't know I would really go go
