Song title: Kinky Friedman - Dear Abbie

Edit By: 216.73.217.50

(kinky friedman)

From a friend of yours in texas
Whos had a little trouble finding love.
Im considered quite attractive
And Ive always been quite active at the club.
But the life I leads so lonesome
That I wonder, abbie, if youve ever known
What its like to live in others dreams
And never have a dream to call your own.
Theres a divorcee in dallas,
Theres a girl whos much too young in idaho.
London bridge is falling down
And the clergyman is out of town
And theres a daughter no one wants in buffalo.
And Im wondering bout america,
Wondering if we lost more than the war.
Im just wondering if theres any silver lining left
Behind the golden door.

And dear abbie, abbie I just had to write.
Dear abbie, abbie is there any love in sight ?

Well, the last time that I saw you
You were living at the old chelsea hotel.
Even though its been a while, hell
Even now it makes me smile
To think of how you tennis-shoed the bill.
And it seems like only yesterday
You fell off of the sea-saw and you cried
And your daddy lit the fireworks
In the backyard on the fourth day of july.

And dear abbie, abbie I just had to write,
Dear abbie, abbie, where are you tonight ?
