Abilene Songtext
von Martha Scanlan

Gonna pay two dollars and change
Someday I′ll pay a quarter and three
Just to buy some gasoline
Gonna put on my best red shirt
Wear my best blue jeans
Slide behind the wheel of an El Camino
Goin' to town in Abilene
Abilene
Abilene
I can see your city lights
Lighting up a corner of the desert sky
Shining like the smile on a hometown rodeo queen
One-way track, ain′t no turning back
I'm comin' to Abilene
Southern skirts and cowboy shirts
Dance floor patty sings


Every country cowboy′s dream
Fort Worth has some pretty girls
San Antonio′s the same
The prettiest girls in the whole wide world
Are waitin' down in Abilene
Abilene (Abilene)
Abilene (Abilene)
I can see your city lights
Lighting up a corner of the desert sky
Shining like the smile on a hometown rodeo queen
One-way track, ain′t no turning back
I'm comin′ to Abilene
Ooh, Abilene
Ooh, Abilene
Ooh, Abilene
Ooh, Abilene
