Thereâs a greyhound bus
Leavinâ the great Northwest
Takinâ her tonight
Back down south to Texas
Sheâs been dancingâ on tables
To pay rent and be able
To just get by and maybe stay clean.
Abilene, Abilene
Abilene, Abilene.
Well her daddyâd get drunk
Then heâd hit her hard
And her mamaâd lie in bed
High on pills and talkinâ to God
But like her beautiful tattoos
These old memories she canât lose
Since she ran away at fifteen.
Abilene, Abilene
Thereâs a town ahead that youâve never seen
Maybe itâs 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
Sheâs dreaminâ of a man sheâs goinâ to meet
In a bar on an Austin street
Maybe this one wonât be so mean.
Abilene, Abilene
Thereâs a town ahead that youâve never seen
And maybe itâs better if you get off there and try to
Forget everything
Abilene.
In a Texas bar thereâs a man sittinâ alone
Thinkinâ of a girl he swore heâd wait there for
But heâs drinkinâ beers and heâs feelinâ old
Rememberinâ every lie heâs told
âTil he changes his mind and he leaves.
Abilene, Abilene
Thereâs a town ahead that youâve never seen
Maybe itâs better if you get off there and try to
Forget everything
Abilene, Abilene
Oh Abilene, Abilene.
