By the time i get to phoenix, she'll be risin'
She'll find the note I left hangin' on her door
And she'll laugh when she reads the part that says i'm leavin'
'Cause i left that girl so many times before
By the time i make Albuquerque she'll be workin'
She'll probably 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 low
And she'll cry just to think i'd really leave her
