Abilene Lyrics
I fell in love with a girl of nineteen <br />
A black-haired girl I called Abilene <br />
Young girl, where's your husband?<br />
Sadly, she replied, I do not have one<br />
Then it's you I'll marry with your parents' permission<br />
<br />
No fine sir, they will not let me marry<br />
For I am a young girl<br />
And you are a man withoutmoney<br />
Then I'll come by your window<br />
Tonight when they both will be sleeping<br />
<br />
Outside your window in a carriage I will be waiting<br />
They'll awake to find you gone<br />

Open their eyes and think they're dreaming<br />
And never did they think<br />
That their Abilene would leave them<br />
<br />
Now fine sir, where is it you shall take me?<br />
Is it in the mountains high<br />
Or is it the deep blue sea?
