Abilene

(John D. Loudermilk)



(Abilene, Abilene,)

(Prettiest town I've ever seen)

(Women there don't treat you mean)

(In Abilene, my Abilene.)



I sit alone most every night

Watch those trains pull out of sight

Don't I wish they were carrying me

Back to Abilene, my Abilene.



(Abilene, Abilene,)

(Prettiest town I've ever seen)

(Women there don't treat you mean)

(In Abilene, my Abilene.)



--- Instrumental ---



Crowded city, ain't nothing free

Nothing in this old town for me

Wish to the Lord that I could be

In Abilene, sweet Abilene.



(Abilene, Abilene,)

(Prettiest town I've ever seen)

(Women there don't treat you mean)

(In Abilene, my Abilene.)...
