1
When Abilene was young and gay
2
And thunder storms filled up the day
3
The cattle roamed outside the town
4
Sleeping in the midday sun
5
Sleeping in the midday sun
6
Sleeping in the midday sun
7
Sleeping in the midday sun
8
Then tracks were lain across the plain
9
By broken old men in torrid rains
10
The towns grew up and the people were still
11
Sleeping in the midday sun
12
Sleeping in the midday sun
13
Sleeping in the midday sun
14
Sleeping in the midday sun
15
We all joined in and all joined hands
16
All joined in to help run this land
17
Then soldiers came, long long ago
18
Rode through the town and rode down those who were
19
Sleeping in the midday sun
20
Sleeping in the midday sun
21
Sleeping in the midday sun
22
Sleeping in the midday sun
23
Gold came and went, quickly spent
24
And the people broke down and often drowned
25
In the wealth and pain of old Abilene
26
Sleeping in the midday sun
27
Sleeping in the midday sun
28
Sleeping in the midday sun
29
Sleeping in the midday sun
