Letra de Buffalo Ballet

[Verse 1]
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
[Verse 2]
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
[Verse 3]
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 sun
