dave alvin - abilene lyrics
dave alvin
(blue h-rn toad music, bmi, administered by bug music)
thereâ? s a greyhound bus
leavinâ? the great northwest
takinâ? her tonight
back down south to texas
sheâ? s been dancingâ? on tables
to pay rent and be able
to just get by and maybe stay clean.
abilene, abilene
abilene, abilene.
well her daddyâ? d get drunk
then heâ? d hit her hard
and her mamaâ? d lie in bed
high on pills and talkinâ? to god
but like her beautiful tattoos
these old memories she canâ? t lose
since she ran away at fifteen.
abilene, abilene
thereâ? s a town ahead that youâ? ve never seen
maybe itâ? s better if you get off there and try to
forget everything
abilene.
starinâ? out the window
at the long cold night
ahead on the horizon
is another string of bright lights
sheâ? s dreaminâ? of a man sheâ? s goinâ? to meet
in a bar on an austin street
maybe this one wonâ? t be so mean.
abilene, abilene
thereâ? s a town ahead that youâ? ve never seen
and maybe itâ? s better if you get off there and try to
forget everything
abilene.
in a texas bar thereâ? s a man sittinâ? alone
thinkinâ? of a girl he swore heâ? d wait there for
but heâ? s drinkinâ? beers and heâ? s feelinâ? old
rememberinâ? every lie heâ? s told
â? til he changes his mind and he leaves.
abilene, abilene
thereâ? s a town ahead that youâ? ve never seen
maybe itâ? s better if you get off there and try to
forget everything
abilene, abilene
oh abilene, abilene.
