Bobby Bare - Abilene

(John D. Loudermilk)

Abilene, Abilene,
Prettiest town I've ever seen
Women there don't treat you mean
In Abilene, my Abilene.

Crowded cities ain't nothing free
Nothing in this town for me
How I wish that I could be
In Abilene, my Abilene.

Abilene, Abilene
Prettiest town I've ever seen
Women there don't treat you mean
In Abilene, my Abilene.

--- Instrumental ---

I sit alone most every night
Watch those trains pull out of sight
How I wish they were carryin' me
Back to Abilene, sweet Abilene.

Abilene, Abilene
Prettiest town I've ever seen
Women there don't treat you mean
In Abilene, my Abilene.

Women there don't treat you mean
In Abilene, my Abilene...
