27 Hours to Abilene and I am in a rush
'Cause there's somebody that I need to see
Somebody I need to touch
Beating on the dash in front of me
Keeping time with those Highwaymen
Smoking cigarettes with the windows down
No clue what lies ahead
But man I got to get to Abilene
I got to get to Abilene
I got to get to Abilene
I got to get to Abilene
With 27 little bones tucked in each
I got my hands at 2 and 10
Am I going to settle the score?
Am I going to get even?
I got to get to Abilene and I am in a rush
'Cause there's something that I need to see
Something I need to touch
I got to get to Abilene
I got to get to Abilene
I got to get to Abilene
I got to get to Abilene
