Abilene Lyrics

Lightning Hopkins Abilene

(Sam (Lightnin') Hopkins)
If you ever go out in west Texas, boy, I want you to stop
by Abilene
If you ever go out in west Texas, boy, I want you to stop
over in Abilene
Yes, you know it's some women there, man, they got a
house all painted green

Well, I'm going out in west Texas, boys, just to run out
on the range
Well, I'm going out in west Texas, boys. just to run out
on the range
Yes, and that's so I can rope a streak of lightning,
boys, head a shower of rain

Yes, you know 1 got a little woman, she lives up on the
hill
She drinks her corn whiskey, man, it runs fast from the
still
You know I got a little bitty woman, whoa, Lord, she
lives up on the hill
Yes, you know she drinks her corn whiskey, boy, run right
from the still1
