Lyrics

[00:00.00] By The Time I Get To Phoenix
[00:06.00] - Engebert Humperdinck
[00:11.00]
[00:12.25] By the time I get to Phoenix,
[00:17.69] she'll be rising
[00:24.10] She'll find the note I left hanging
[00:29.90] on her door
[00:36.96] She'll laugh when she reads the part
[00:41.48] That says: "I'm leaving"
[00:48.09] 'Cause I've left that girl
[00:52.63] so many times before
[00:56.82]
[01:00.09] By the time I make Albuquerque,
[01:05.84] she'll be working
[01:13.04] She'll prob'ly stop at lunch
[01:16.67] and give me a call
[01:23.97] But she'll just her that phone
[01:29.97] keep on ringing
[01:36.22] Off the wall, that's all
[01:45.16]
[01:48.05] By the time I make Oklahoma,
[01:53.65] she'll be sleeping
[02:00.04] She'll turn softly
[02:04.52] and call my name out low
[02:11.95] And she'll cry just to think
[02:16.64] I'd really leave her
[02:24.03] Though time and time
[02:29.05] I tried to tell her so
[02:36.21] She just didn't know
[02:41.20] I would really go
[02:47.30]
