Generate meaning
1
By the time I get to Phoenix, she'll be rising
2
And she'll find that note that I left hanging on the door
3
And she'll laugh when she reads the part
4
That says: "I'm leaving"
5
'Cause I've left that girl so many times before
6
And by the time I get to Albuquerque, she'll be working
7
And she'll take off time just to give me a call
8
And she'll hear that phone keep right on ringing and ringing
9
On the wall, yeah oh, that's all
10
And by the time I make Oklahoma, she'll be sleeping
11
She'll turn softly in her sleep and call my name out low
12
And then she'll cry just to think that I'd really leave her, I left her
13
But time after time after time I tried to tell her so
14
But she just didn't know that I would really go
15
That I would really go
