(Lyrics)

By the time I get to Phoenix 
She'll be rising

She'll find the note 

I left hangin' on her door
And 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 

Call my name out loud
And she'll cry 

Just to think I'd really leave her
Tho' time and time 

I've tried to tell her so
She just didn't know 

I would really go.

She didn't know 
 I would really go

By the time I get to Phoenix - Johnny Rivers (1965) (with lyrics)

(Lyrics)

By the time I get to Phoenix 
She'll be risin'
She'll find the note
That 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 probably stop at lunch
And give me a call
She'll hear that empty 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
She'll cry to think
That I'd really leave her
Tho' time and time again
I've tried to tell her so

She didn't know that I would really go

She just didn't know...

Romance - Johnny Rivers (with lyrics)

(Lyrics)

Hey, tell me tonight
Just how you've been living with him
Oh, you're my baby now
Nobody else, nobody else
Will do, like you

Romance, give me a chance
Romance, give me a chance

Blue, falling rain
I came undone, I came undone
So don't push me tonight
Taking it hard, taking it hard
And I might cry

Romance, give me a chance
Romance, give me a chance

(Instrumental)

Sweet smoke of love hear me
I want

Romance, give me a chance
Romance, give me a chance

Romance, give me a chance

(Instrumental)

Taking it hard, taking it hard

Summer rain - Johnny Rivers (1967 - 1968 live) (with lyrics)

 live 1968





(Lyrics)

Summer rain taps at my window
West wind soft as a sweet dream
My love warm as the sunshine
Sittin' here by me,
She's here by me

She stepped out of the rainbow
Golden hair shinin' like moon glow
Warm lips soft as a soul
Sitting here by me, yeah
She's here by me

All summer long we spent dancin' in the sand
And the jukebox kept on playin' 

"Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band"

We sailed into the sunset
Drifting home caught by a gulf stream
Never gave a thought for tomorrow
Just let tomorrow be, now
Let tomorrow be

(Instrumental)

She wants to live in the Rockies
She says that's where we'll find peace
Settle down, raise up a fam'ly
To call our own, yeah
We'll have a home

All summer long we spent groovin' in the sand
Everybody kept on playin' 

"Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band"

The snow drifts by my window
North wind blowin' like thunder
Our love's burnin' like fire
And she's here by me, yeah
She's here with me
Let tomorrow be

I need your lovin' - Johnny Rivers (1965 live) (with lyrics)

(Lyrics)

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

Baby, I need your lovin'
Baby, I need your lovin'
Although you're never near
Your voice I often hear

Another day, another night
I long to hold you tight
'Cause I'm so lonely

Baby, I need your lovin'
Got to have all your lovin'
Baby, I need your lovin'
Got to have all your lovin'

Every night I call your name
Oh, sometimes I wonder, girl, 

Will I ever be the same?

When you see me smile you know
Things are just gettin' worse
Any smile you might see, baby
Has all been rehearsed
Baby, I can't go on without you
This loneliness won't let me live without you
This emptiness inside me, baby
Makes me feel half alive

Baby, I need your lovin'
Got to have all your lovin'
Baby, I need your lovin'
Got to have all your lovin'

Uh, I need your lovin'
Got to have all your lovin'
Yeah, yeah, yeah
