By The Time I Get To Phoenix Lyrics by Jack Jones

If You Ever Leave Me

0

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'
Shе'll turn softly and call my name out loud
And she'll cry just to think I'd really lеave her
Tho' time and time I try to tell her so
She just didn't know I would really go
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's gotta be working
