Dean Martin - By The Time I Get To Phoenix Lyrics






By the time I get to Phoenix
She'll find the note I left hanging on her door
She'll laugh when she reads the part that says I'm leaving
'Cause I've left that gal so many times before

By the time I make Albuquerque she'll be working
She'll probably stop at lunch and give me a call
But she'll just hear that phone keep on ringing
Off the wall, that's all

By the time I make Oklahoma she'll be sleeping
She'll turn softly, call my name out low
And she'll cry just to think I'd really leave her
Though time and time I've tried to tell her so
She just didn't know I would really go

    Dino does a satisfying "last generation" rendition of the mega-hit song which by this time had been made famous by Glen Campbell. See also, the great Johnny Rivers' version, who first recorded this heart-breaking song.

  13. D.... R....

    Love love love it , great song suits DINO to a T, a hit for Glen Campbell.

  17. T.... B....

    Some called him lazy with his vocal...but when you hear him lay this tune down...with his phrasing...his style...he makes you believe the song. That's an artist.

  18. D.... A....

    Smooth as fuck

  19. P.... V....

    Jolie version par Dean !

  20. m.... b....

    Riiiiiiiichtiiiiiiig gut...………… Super

    I know most people go on about Sinatra,but for me he couldn't touch Dino.

  22. j.... b....

    she'll laugh when she reads the part that says i'm leaving

  23. r.... p....

    The coolest of the crooners... Except Francis Albert😉

  24. D.... G....

    This just tears my heart out. -----------------------------WolfSky9

  28. P.... S....

    Dean Martin was truly one of the greatest vocalists of our time just pure raw talent.

  29. F.... M....

    I thank my Father to introduced me to his music and to the most coolest Artist of all time, Love your music Dino, God Bless you wherever you are and your family. I miss your shows and thank you for the memories with my Dad.

  30. D.... N....

    I think that’s what you call class

  31. C.... D....

    I like that Dean sings this sitting down. What a voice. What a gift.

  32. J.... C....

    Dean Martin had his own way to make a song so it sounds LIKE original but better

  33. S.... R....

    ...that’s all...

  34. G.... L....

    Dean brings back many memories.
    As a teenager I recall guys on the street singing in fun , " Everybody Loves Somebody Sometime .... .

  35. M.... R....

    👏👏👏😢😍

  36. D.... S....

    What a simple and beautiful sad song! Makes me cry every time.

  37. M.... E....

    By the time I get to Phoenix
    She'll be rising
    She'll find the note I left hanging on her door
    She'll laugh, when she reads the part that says I'm leaving
    Cause I've left that girl, so many times before

    By the time I make Albuquerque
    She'll be working
    She'll probably stop at lunch,
    and give me a call
    But she'll just hear that phone keep on ringing
    Off the wall, that's all

    By the time I make Oklahoma
    She'll be sleeping
    She'll turn softly and call my name out low
    And she'll cry, just to think, I'd really leave her
    Though time and time I've tried to tell her so
    She just didn't know,
    I would really

  38. M.... R....

    so beautiful and so sad

  39. S.... T....

    He was always a class act.

  40. C.... S....

    you own this son Dean

  41. W.... ....

    Tami, this is yours, forever. ------------WolfSky9

  42. W.... ....

    RIP, Mr. Martin, we miss you more as the years go by. --------------------WolfSky9, 71 y/o Now

  43. N.... W....

    Wow...this may be my favorite performance of his...boy, he really feels it.

  44. C.... M....

    Everyone has a time, and I'm so glad to have lived in a time that such music was the norm. The next generation are welcome to what they consider the norm, as I have no interest and why would I, as I won't be around forever. I do believe technology vwill at some stage be able to recreate all these wonderful artists live and that I would like to see. Anyways as I say, we all have our time, so enjoy the moment and don't worry about the future as it's not ours to decide what it should be. Thanks to YouTube for enabling us all to re experience times in our life through the medium of music.

  45. C.... F....

    The shame is that they don't have singers like him today or music like this. I'm glad I can listen to this music every day.

  46. g.... ....

    Ooh 😲😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

  47. S.... M....

    Loved this man with this impeccable smooth voice, so cool and so handsome, miss him.x.

  48. K.... ....

    This was wriften by Glenn Campbell. He's gone now, too...

  49. J.... B....

    I love this song. But I absolutely hate his version here and think it's wretched.

  50. a.... s....

    eu ti amo amo ha sua arte hoje tu la em riba com deus mais ta aqui com nos

  51. j.... ....

    A true definition of a "crooner"....will miss you and your voice!

  52. L.... G....

    Aint nobody like Dean. There will never be another Dean.

    L.... G....

    You're so right.

  53. 1.... ....

    Peter, couldn't have said it better if I tried myself.We were lucky enough to live through the times of "real talent" and I'm sure no generation will ever experience this magic again.

  54. J.... F....

    what a performance

  55. Z.... R....

    I'm not cool bc Dean hogged it all

  56. M.... L....

    Smoother than smooth.So great to listen to.

  57. D.... ....

    First of all, Dean's in a Tux which sets the standard; something useless & pathetic Snowflake Millennials can't comprehend. Secondly, Dean sits down & sings so magnificently that it's incomprehensible. Truly one of a kind.

  58. H.... T....

    wow not my generation but a great voice , incredible !

  59. A.... C....

    The great timeless classic show.

  60. D.... C....

    Dean Martin your missed my brother but soon my brother soon!

  61. W.... ....

    Mr. Martin, you were just magnificent on this one, & I so remember watching this with my Dad. One of the very few times you really sang from the heart. ---I was in tears. -----------Wolfsky9, 70 y/o

  62. b.... ....

    sooooo slick......

  63. S.... ....

    Can't decide, when I return do I want to be Dean, Robert Redford, or Teddy Ballgame. Ted was what John Wayne WISHED he was!

    S.... ....

    SILVER7 Dino for me so cool

  64. D.... D....

    after his son died he was never the same

  65. p.... m....

    Dean Martin the greatest

  66. N.... O....

  67. R.... F....

    I just love his music and this video is one of my favourites. Rick

  68. J.... M....

  69. b.... ....

    If this guy was any cooler, he'd be pure ice!!!

    b.... ....

    b.... ....

  71. Y.... Y....

    thanks for the upload bro

  72. p.... p....

    There will never be another like him, He did this and many other songs justice, Sad they are disappearing, fantastic song love it

  73. W.... ....

    A man's song, sung by a man's man--as only he could do it. You were the best, Mr. Dean Martin --& I'm in tears, every time I see this video, because I so remember watching this on your show. One of a handful of times you really sang from the heart.  Wolfsky9

  74. W.... ....

    Shar, why ? Why?? We could have had it so good. I tried--you know I tried--with all I had. Why, Shar??? The hurt is as raw today, as it was in '71.  I loved you so much!!  Why wasn't it enough???  Whyy?       Wolfsky9

    W.... ....

    Wolfsky9 Just read your comment of 2 years ago.Hope you feel better?

  75. d.... j....

    Wonderful simply the best

  76. f.... a....

    i miss u so much mr.martin

  77. A.... G....

    Real music, no junk jive.

  78. m.... ....

    Dean, Sammy, Frank and Bing were the ultimate crooner`s. Each song they sang told a story.

    m.... ....

    @milestoneman Toss in Nat 'King' Cole, Mel Torme, and Matt Monro

    m.... ....

    Magic the best ever all of them. But they all loved ,and adored one man even more . The great sachmo, the great Mr Armstrong . He played with them all , and you never forget a show any one of them made with the great man.

  79. F.... A....

    For some reason this song makes me cry. Dean's version was very touching. Great song, but I'm crying, lol!

  80. w.... ....

    So languid! Unbelievably laid back. Dean's rendition of Jimmy Webb's song has always been my favorite. I also like things like the love theme from the film Airport and 70s soft pop.

  81. M.... ....

    The man was a legend even in his lifetime. He is one of the people you never forget. Beautiful and timeless.

    M.... ....

    Totally agree with you

    M.... ....

    Definitely.

  82. B.... P....

    Dean was a great guy too besides a great talent.  From some small town in Ohio.  Miss him and his wonderful humor and voice.

    B.... P....

    +Brown Paw Dino grew up in Steubenville, Ohio. Worked as a croupier while still in high school, until someone realized He could sing...

    B.... P....

    I believe it was Steubenville, Ohio

  83. F.... R....

    Sorry.  was  Shit  Good.   but  I  listen  to  him  all  the time.  Dean  and  John Denver....

  84. F.... R....

    This Guy  is  Shit  Good.....

  85. W.... ....

    In the years he did The Dean Martin Show, it's safe to say there were only a handful of times --like this --when Dean sang from his heart, & it was always a song about losing love. Absolutely no one --I mean, no one --ever did this like Dean did, & it never fails to hit me right in my heart of hearts. Miss you Mr. Dean Martin.      Wolfsky9

  86. i.... ....

    He always sang better on this show than he did on his albums.

  87. P.... R....

    I hear my kids tell to watch all these sings shows like, The Voice, America Got Talent, Britian Got Talent, etc.
    Then you Watch and Listen to this man, and realize who really has Talent.
    End of Story!

    P.... R....

    Peter Racippo smoking wasn't the 'in thing'. It was just what people did. You can't liken it to drug use nowadays. Both my parents were heavy smokers, along with everyone else. Those were the mistakes of the 60s and 70s like lead paint and no seat belts.

    P.... R....

    To Mr. P. Racippo : AMEN, Paisan ! This was one time the man REALLY did it from the heart. ----------------WolfSky9, 71 y/o

    P.... R....

    To Mr Racippo : AMEN, BROTHER !!! -------------------WolfSky9, 72 y/o

    P.... R....

    @Peter Racippo Sammy, Peter and Dean did their share of cocaine too.

    P.... R....

    My friend, quality and class never go out of fashion.

  88. M.... A....

    ¡Dean Martin!, el relajado cantante. Una preciosa canción, de letra muy original.

  89. A.... M....

    this gentleman is so cool my screen is freezing

  90. P.... G....

    he was the best.    There was no one to compare him to.

    P.... G....

    +Peter Gapsis

    I agree with you.

  91. H.... H....

    He's so smooth.

  92. W.... ....

    One of those all too rare moments when Dean got serious, & sang for real. What a voice the man had, & was there EVER a more handsome man? I don't believe so.  Wolfsky9

  93. T.... ....

    I mean "ahhhh." Love this man's style. Aside from this music the man was so darn handsome ,manly and suave. Miss this type.

  94. T.... ....

    ASh,Italiano beautiful man.

  95. v.... ....

    Dino nailed it, as usual.

  96. d.... s....

    I love it....
