Dear Abbie

(kinky friedman) From a friend of yours in texas Who's had a little trouble finding love. I'm considered quite attractive And I've always been quite active at the club. But the life I lead's so lonesome That I wonder, abbie, if you've ever known What it's like to live in others' dreams And never have a dream to call your own. There's a divorcee in dallas, There's a girl who's much too young in idaho. London bridge is falling down And the clergyman is out of town And there's a daughter no one wants in buffalo. And I'm wondering ¡®bout america, Wondering if we lost more than the war. I'm just wondering if there's any silver lining left Behind the golden door. And dear abbie, abbie I just had to write. Dear abbie, abbie is there any love in sight ? Well, the last time that I saw you You were living at the old chelsea hotel. Even though it's been a while, hell Even now it makes me smile To think of how you tennis-shoed the bill. And it seems like only yesterday You fell off of the sea-saw and you cried And your daddy lit the fireworks In the backyard on the fourth day of july. And dear abbie, abbie I just had to write, Dear abbie, abbie, where are you tonight ?
