Verse 1
Sitting in my office chair
Staring into space
Wishing I could be somewhere
In a better place
Tired of feeling scared today
Tired of feeling wrong
How my life has slipped away
When the time it seemed so long
Pre-Chorus & Chorus
And some days I drift away
To the cowboy in my soul
Riding the open range
Instead of pushing pens for gold
And some days I find my way
To a ranch beyond the green
And my heart lands on the plains
Of 1873
And I'm right there in my Abilene dream
Yes, I'm right there in my Abilene dream
And for all the restless souls who wander
Looking to breathe free
I'll meet you in my Abilene dream
Verse 2
Boundaries are closing in
No place to go
This land that I once knew
Doesn't feel like home
Always want to break out
I'll be working again past five
All I do is think about
A long past cattle drive
