Roger Miller - Meanwhile Back In Abilene Lyrics
Released onMovin all around, movin all aroundWont you settle down in this old townOn the move, honey thats my grooveTravel everywhere, breathing in the airI dont have a careIn this old worldAnd I feel fine, everything is mineMeanwhile back in abilene the sun is coming upAnd the milkmans making all the rounds he made when I was just a pupBarbershop will open up and jacksons drugstore tooAnd theyll talk about this poor young wandering foolTaking in the sights, see the city lightsSmiling at the girls and being coolHaving fun, my life has just begunFishing in the stream with a piece of stringAll I catch is turles and old bootsAnd I dont mind, cos Im feeling fineMeanwhile back in abilene the sun is going downAnd the drive-in restaurants the only place to go to hear a soundDrive-in crowd know each and every one by their first nameAnd theyll talk about me, wonder if Ive changedMovin all around, movin all aroundWont you settle down in this old townOn the move, honey thats my grooveTravel everywhere, breathing in the airI dont have a careIn this old worldAnd I feel fine, everything is mineTaking in the sights, see the city lightsSmiling at the girls and being coolHaving fun, my life has just begunFishing in the stream with a piece of stringAll I catch is turtles and old bootsAnd I dont mind, cos Im feeling fine
