Glen Campbell – By The Time I Get To Phoenix: Lyrics and Music Video

By The Time I Get To Phoenix Lyrics

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’
She’ll turn softly and call my name out loud
And she’ll cry just to think i’d really leave her
Tho’ time and time i try to tell her so
She just didn’t know i would really go.
