lirik lagu abigail – chatham rabbits
[intro]
one, two, three, four
[verse 1]
i left my homeland
with a song on my lips
’cause roosevelt told me
that i could get a job with horses
well, i’d always been one of the herd
my own mare i did tame
but i never learned to read and write
and i could barely even spell my own name
[chorus]
but i said, “come abby dear with your books on each side
balance you out and a*steady your ride.”
and i set out down the tomahawk trail
to deliver the books on abigail
[verse 2]
well, we splashed through the creeks so widе
and the valleys so deep
and evеry night i would flip through the pages
on her belly i would sleep
then i held her up as the heat set in
when she found dirt in the field
and i wrapped it with herbs like the old*timer said
she began to heal
[chorus]
and i said, “come abby dear with your books on each side
balance you out and a*steady your ride.”
and i set out down the tomahawk trail
to deliver the books on abigail
[verse 3]
well, we took those books in the towns
and the hollers every day
just to give those folks a place to go
and a chance to get away
and though i was a book lady
i never did learn to read
but i was smarter than the mountains are rough
’cause i had abby next to me
[chorus]
and i said, “come abby dear with your books on each side
balance you out and a*steady your ride.”
oh, i set out down the tomahawk trail
to deliver the books on abigail
[outro]
yeah, i set out down the tomahawk trail
to deliver the books on abigail
