Lyrics
17 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.
It'd take about 900 miles round trip
To walk on the Gulf of Mexico
We'd jump in my daddy's beat up truck
Drive all night and don't look back
Momma she'd go crazy
Just wonderin' where we're at
Chorus:
Seventeen in Abilene
You and me
Biggest sky you've ever seen
There're so many miles of open road
And so many places still left to go
Seventeen, runnin' from Abilene
It doesn't take much for us
To drive away
Cause all we need's
Just a little bit of faith
I got fifty bucks in my pocket
It'll get us there
But maybe not back
The sun is shining
From head to toe
And I don't think
I'll ever let you go
(Chorus)
I see the stars in your eyes
Let's start the rest
Of our lives tonight
(Chorus)
