lyrics

Abilene

CoCo O’Connor, Satarah Songs BMI

Never did my feet there roam
Slipping on a rolling stone
18 more miles to Texarkana
I got lost in Little Rock
Gave a man there all I got
‘Cause I got a heart as big as Texas

Abilene , Oh Abilene
Abilene , Oh Abilene
Shotgun shells , Oil wells
All the stories
You could tell
Abilene

On the 23rd of May
Got a job a bailin’ hay
Man it was hard
But I didn’t go hungry

Everytime I thought of you
I’d look up to them skies so blue
‘Cause you know you can cure what ails you in Texas

Abilene , Oh Abilene
Abilene , Oh Abilene
Shotgun shells , Oil wells
All the stories
You could tell
Abilene , Oh Abilene
Abilene , Oh Abilene
Dusty plains , Railroad trains
All the things
That you have seen
Abilene

Never did my feet there roam
Slipping on a rolling stone
18 more miles to Texarkana
