Dear Abbie
Kinky Friedman gelesen von Wiglaf Droste Lyrics

From a friend of yours in texas
I'm writing this to you on behalf of a friend in Texas who has been struggling with finding love.

Who's had a little trouble finding love.
He's been facing difficulty finding the love of his life.

I'm considered quite attractive
People often consider me as attractive.

And I've always been quite active at the club.
I tend to have a busy social life.

But the life I lead's so lonesome
Despite being active socially, my life is quite lonely.

That I wonder, abbie, if you've ever known
I wonder if you've ever experienced the same loneliness that I feel.

What it's like to live in others' dreams
Living in others' expectations and aspirations can be daunting.

And never have a dream to call your own.
Not having a dream or ambition of one's own can be quite troublesome.

There's a divorcee in dallas,
I know a divorcee in Dallas,

There's a girl who's much too young in idaho.
I also know a girl in Idaho who's too young for the problems she's facing.

London bridge is falling down
The state of things isn't looking positive.

And the clergyman is out of town
It feels like there is no divine intervention when we need it.

And there's a daughter no one wants in buffalo.
There's a neglected and unwanted daughter in Buffalo.

And I'm wondering ¡®bout america,
I'm starting to ponder about the uncertainties of America.

Wondering if we lost more than the war.
I'm wondering if we've lost more than just the wars that we've waged.

I'm just wondering if there's any silver lining left
I'm starting to question if there's any hope left.

Behind the golden door.
Even when things look pretty on the outside, they might not be that way inside.

And dear abbie, abbie I just had to write.
Abbie, I had to write to you.

Dear abbie, abbie is there any love in sight?
Do you think there's any love to be found?

Well, the last time that I saw you
The last time I saw you was when you lived in the Old Chelsea Hotel.

You were living at the old chelsea hotel.
You were living your life with freedom and abandon.

Even though it's been a while, hell
Though it's been so long, it still brings me joy to recall.

Even now it makes me smile
I'm laughing at the thought of

To think of how you tennis-shoed the bill.
how you managed to get away with not paying the bill.

And it seems like only yesterday
It feels like such a short time ago.

You fell off of the sea-saw and you cried
I remember when you cried as you fell off the seesaw.

And your daddy lit the fireworks
Your daddy found ways to bring you joy.

In the backyard on the fourth day of july.
Like by lighting up fireworks in the backyard on the 4th of July.

And dear abbie, abbie I just had to write,
Abbie, I just had to put these words down.

Dear abbie, abbie, where are you tonight?
Abbie, where are you now?
