[00:16.25]When Abilene was young and gay
[00:26.05]And thunder storms filled up the day
[00:33.61]The cattle roamed outside the town
[00:41.77]Sleeping in the midday sun
[00:45.00]Sleeping in the midday sun
[00:49.69]Sleeping in the midday sun
[00:52.67]Sleeping in the midday sun
[00:58.88]Then tracks were lain across the plain
[01:06.48]By broken old men in torrid rains
[01:14.32]The towns grew up and the people were still
[01:21.92]Sleeping in the midday sun
[01:25.67]Sleeping in the midday sun
[01:30.07]Sleeping in the midday sun
[01:33.74]Sleeping in the midday sun
[01:38.26]We all joined in and all joined hands
[01:45.41]All joined in to help run this land
[01:53.06]Then soldiers came, long long ago
[02:00.38]Rode through the town and rode down those who were
[02:08.77]Sleeping in the midday sun
[02:12.36]Sleeping in the midday sun
[02:16.14]Sleeping in the midday sun
[02:20.15]Sleeping in the midday sun
[02:26.40]Gold came and went, quickly spent
[02:33.49]And the people broke down and often drowned
[02:38.84]In the wealth and pain of old Abilene
[02:49.50]Sleeping in the midday sun
[02:53.44]Sleeping in the midday sun
[02:57.08]Sleeping in the midday sun
[03:01.01]Sleeping in the midday sun
