《Abilene》歌词

[00:00:00] Abilene - Dave Alvin

[00:00:16] There's a greyhound bus

[00:00:20] Leavin' the great Northwest

[00:00:24] Takin' her tonight

[00:00:26] Back down south to Texas

[00:00:32] She's been dancing' on tables

[00:00:35] To pay rent and be able

[00:00:38] To just get by and maybe stay clean

[00:00:44] Abilene Abilene

[00:00:51] Abilene Abilene

[00:00:57] Well her daddy'd get drunk

[00:01:01] Then he'd hit her hard

[00:01:04] And her mama'd lie in bed

[00:01:07] High on pills and talkin' to God

[00:01:12] But like her beautiful tattoos

[00:01:16] These old memories she can't lose

[00:01:19] Since she ran away at fifteen

[00:01:24] Abilene Abilene

[00:01:29] There's a town ahead that you've never seen

[00:01:36] Maybe it's better if you get off there and try to

[00:01:43] Forget everything

[00:01:46] Abilene

[00:01:54] Starin' out the window

[00:01:57] At the long cold night

[00:02:00] Ahead on the horizon

[00:02:03] Is another string of bright lights

[00:02:08] She's dreamin' of a man she's goin' to meet

[00:02:12] In a bar on an Austin street

[00:02:15] Maybe this one won't be so mean

[00:02:20] Abilene Abilene

[00:02:25] There's a town ahead that you've never seen

[00:02:32] Maybe it's better if you get off there and try to

[00:02:38] Forget everything

[00:02:42] Abilene

[00:03:16] In a Texas bar there's a man sittin' alone

[00:03:23] Thinkin' of a girl he swore he'd wait there for

[00:03:31] But he's drinkin' beers and he's feelin' old

[00:03:34] Rememberin' every lie he's told

[00:03:38] Til he changes his mind and he leaves

[00:03:43] Abilene Abilene

[00:03:47] There's a town ahead that you've never seen

[00:03:54] Maybe it's better if you get off there and try to

[00:04:01] Forget everything

[00:04:04] Abilene Abilene

[00:04:10] Oh Abilene Abilene
