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 still
