1  (Matraca Berg/Mike Noble)1
2      2
  Sweet Abilena looks out at the midwestern sky  Sweet Abilena looks out at the midwestern sky
  Sweet seventeen with a faraway look in her eyes  Sweet seventeen with a faraway look in her eyes
1   1
  She said, "I feel like a bird in a cage  She said, "I feel like a bird in a cage
1  Come       September I’m flying away"   But come September I'm flying away" 1
2  And I said, "I’m gonna miss you"        I said, "I'm gonna miss you" 2
3  Then I made her promise to write   then I made her promise to write 3
      
  Since we were tall as the corn in the spring  Since we were tall as the corn in the spring
  We shared every secret, shared every dream  We shared every secret, shared every dream
  So anxious to grow in the new summer rain  So anxious to grow in the new summer rain
4  And bloom like a rose on the Calico plains   And bloom like a rose on the calico plains 4
2   2
3  How could she hear as we laughed   3
4  On that warm summer night   4
5  The tiny heart of the baby, she carried inside   5
      
3  How could she hear as we laughed on that warm summer night3
4  The tiny heart of the baby she carried inside4
  I stood beside her when September came  I stood beside her when September came
  Watched her get married and caught the bouquet  Watched her get married and caught the bouquet
  And like those hand me down dresses she gave me  And like those hand me down dresses she gave me
  I made her dreams mine  I made her dreams mine
      
  From a seat by the window on wings made of steel  From a seat by the window on wings made of steel
  I stared at the patchwork over the fields  I stared at the patchwork over the fields
  Where young tears that once fell like warm summer rain  Where young tears that once fell like warm summer rain
5  Were turning to snow on the Calico plains   Were turning to snow on the calico plains 5
      
  Sweet Abilena looks out at the midwestern sky  Sweet Abilena looks out at the midwestern sky
  Closer to thirty but farther away in her eyes  Closer to thirty but farther away in her eyes
  She holds her babies like she holds her dreams  She holds her babies like she holds her dreams
6  Each night she kisses and rocks them to sleep          Each night she kisses and rocks them to sleep while 6
7  While she reads the letters, she makes me promise to write   She      reads the letters she makes me promise to write 7
      
8  Sweet Abilena looks out at the midwestern sky   Sweet Abliena looks out at the midwestern sky 8
