Western Wind

Well I'm just a lonely cowboy here on the Texas plains
Got woman down in Abilene who I think of everyday
Got a hundred fifty longhorns under my care
Been a week since I've had a drink and month since I washed my hair

But the sun is a shining on me everyday
Crack the whip and wipe my brow and move along my way
Sometimes I don't wanna be here, sometimes I do
Sometimes I don't know my desire, and I just want something new

Well I know it's true deep within my bones
Take me back on the western wind to Abilene my home
Take me too my lady waiting at the door
Take me back on the western wind to the women I adore

We stop to camp up for the night and she's still on my mind
Ain't had a fever for home this bad in all my cattle time
A coyote howls up at the silver moon
Deep in sleep I dream of an Abilene afternoon

Well I know it's true deep within my bones
Take me back on the western wind to Abilene my home
Take me too my lady waiting at the door
Take me back on the western wind to the women I adore

Well up at the next morning she's burning in my brain
See another herder there riding cross the plain
Well a couple thousand dollars is a little low in price
But any coin was good for me to ride back home tonight

Well I know it's true deep within my bones
Take me back on the western wind to Abilene my home
Take me too my lady waiting at the door
Take me back on the western wind to the women I adore
