Issac Hayes - By The Time I Get To Phoenix lyrics

rate me

By the time I get to Phoenix she'll be rising, <br />

She'll find the note I left hanging on the door, <br />

She'll laugh we she reads the part that says I'm leaving, <br />

Cause I've left that girl so many times before.<br />

<br />

By the time I make Alberquerque she'll be working, <br />

She'll probably stop at lunch and give me a call, <br />

But she'll just hear the phone keep on ringing, <br />

Off the wall... that's all.<br />

<br />

By the time I make Oklahoma she'll be sleeping, <br />

She'll turn softly and call my name out low, <br />

She'll cry just to think I'd really leave her, <br />

Though time and time I've tried to tell her, <br />

<br />

She just didn't know... I would really go.
