《Abilene》歌词

[00:00:23] There's a greyhound bus

[00:00:27] Leavin' the great Northwest

[00:00:31] Takin' her tonight

[00:00:34] Back down south to Texas

[00:00:39] She's been dancing' on tables

[00:00:43] To pay rent and be able

[00:00:46] To just get by and maybe stay clean

[00:00:52] Abilene Abilene

[00:00:59] Abilene Abilene

[00:01:06] Well her daddy'd get drunk

[00:01:09] Then he'd hit her hard

[00:01:13] And her mama'd lie in bed

[00:01:15] High on pills and talkin' to God

[00:01:21] But like her beautiful tattoos

[00:01:25] These old memories she can't lose

[00:01:28] Since she ran away at fifteen

[00:01:34] Abilene Abilene

[00:01:39] There's a town ahead that you've never seen

[00:01:46] Maybe it's better if you get off there and try to

[00:01:53] Forget everything

[00:01:57] Abilene

[00:02:04] Starin' out the window

[00:02:07] At the long cold night

[00:02:11] Ahead on the horizon

[00:02:14] Is another string of bright lights

[00:02:19] She's dreamin' of a man she's goin' to meet

[00:02:23] In a bar on an Austin street

[00:02:27] Maybe this one won't be so mean

[00:02:32] Abilene Abilene

[00:02:37] There's a town ahead that you've never seen

[00:02:44] And maybe it's better if you get off there and try to

[00:02:51] Forget everything

[00:02:55] Abilene

[00:03:26] In a Texas bar there's a man sittin' alone

[00:03:33] Thinkin' of a girl he swore he'd wait there for

[00:03:41] But he's drinkin' beers and he's feelin' old

[00:03:44] Rememberin' every lie he's told

[00:03:48] 'Til he changes his mind and he leaves

[00:03:53] Abilene Abilene

[00:03:58] There's a town ahead that you've never seen

[00:04:05] Maybe it's better if you get off there and try to

[00:04:12] Forget everything

[00:04:16] Abilene Abilene

[00:04:22] Oh Abilene Abilene
