When Abilene was young and gay And thunder storms filled up the day The cattle roamed outside the town
[Chorus:] Sleeping in the midday sun Sleeping in the midday sun Sleeping in the midday sun Sleeping in the midday sun
Then tracks were lain across the plain By broken old men in torrid rains The towns grew up, the people were still
[Chorus:] Sleeping in the midday sun Sleeping in the midday sun Sleeping in the midday sun Sleeping in the midday sun
[Bridge:] All join in and we'll all hold hands Yes, we'll all join in to run the land But soldiers once, long long ago Rode through the town, rode down those
[Chorus:] Sleeping in the midday sun Sleeping in the midday sun Sleeping in the midday sun Sleeping in the midday sun
Gold came and went, quickly spent The people broke down and often drowned From wealth and the pain of old Abilene
[Chorus:] They were sleeping in the midday sun Sleeping in the midday sun Sleeping in the midday sun Sleeping in the midday sun Sleeping in the midday sun Sleeping in the midday sun Sleeping in the midday sun Sleeping in the midday sunTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
