Lyrics

[Chorus]
Abilene, Abilene
Prettiest town I've ever seen
Women there don't treat you mean in Abilene
My Abilene
[Verse 1]
I sit alone, most every night
Watch those trains pull out of sight
Don't I wish they were carryin' me back to Abilene?
My Abilene
[Chorus]
Abilene, Abilene
Prettiest town I've ever seen
Women there don't treat you mean in Abilene
My Abilene
[Verse 2]
Crowded city, there ain't nothin' free
Nothin' in this town for me
Wish to the Lord that I could be in Abilene
Sweet Abilene
[Chorus]
Abilene, Abilene
Prettiest town I've ever seen
Women there don't treat you mean in Abilene
My Abilene
[Outro]
(Women there don't treat you mean in Abilene) In Abilene
My Abilene
Written by: Albert Stanton, Bob Gibson, John D. Loudermilk, Lester Brown
