《Abilene》歌词

[00:00:00] Abilene - Dave Alvin

[00:00:24] 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

[00:00:40] 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

[00:01:10] Then he'd hit her hard

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

[00:01:16] High on pills and talking to God

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

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

[00:01:29] 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

[00:01:50] Get off there and try to

[00:01:53] Forget everything

[00:01:57] Abilene

[00:02:05] Starin' out the window

[00:02:08] At the long cold night

[00:02:12] Ahead on the horizon

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

[00:02:20] She's dreaming of a man she's goin' to meet

[00:02:24] In a bar on an Austin street

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

[00:02:33] Abilene Abilene

[00:02:38] There's a town ahead that you've never seen

[00:02:44] Maybe it's better if you

[00:02:48] Get off there and try to

[00:02:52] Forget everything

[00:02:55] Abilene

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

[00:03:34] Thinkin' of a girl he swore

[00:03:37] He'd wait there for

[00:03:41] But he's drinking beers and

[00:03:43] He's feelin' old

[00:03:45] Rememberin' every lie he's told

[00:03:49] Till he changes his mind and he leaves

[00:03:54] Abilene Abilene

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

[00:04:06] Maybe it's better if you

[00:04:10] Get off there and try to

[00:04:13] Forget everything

[00:04:16] Abilene Abilene

[00:04:22] Oh Abilene Abilene
