Saturday Night In Abilene
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I been three months eatin' that trail dust and sleepin' out on the ground
In the burning sun and the cold cold moon with nothin' but stars around
But this drive is finally over we done made it to the Kansas line
I got my pay and I'm on my way this cowboy's feelin' fine
Cause tonight's the night we're gonna have some fun
The trains are loaded and the work's all done
My spurs are jinglin' my boots are clean
And it's Saturday night in Abilene Saturday night in Abilene
[ guitar ]
I'm gonna kick up both of my boot heels until my feet get sore
Them Kansas gals don't stand a chance when I'm dancin' out on the floor
Well you know we're tired of waiting until the sun goes down
There ain't no doubt you better look out the J-Bar Z's in town
Cause tonight's the night we're gonna have some fun
The trains are leaving and the work's all done
I got a little money down in my jeans
And it's Saturday night in Abilene Saturday night in Abilene
[ guitar - piano ]
It's a long way back to Texas and all of my friends are there
But I'll worry bout that on Monday right now I just don't care
Cause tonight's the night we're gonna have some fun
The trains are leaving and the work's all done
The king of the cowboys lookin' for a queen
Cause it's Saturday night in Abilene Saturday night in Abilene
Still got a little money down in my jeans and it's Saturday night in Abilene
