About fourteen miles out of Abilene
At a curve in the road and a little stream
I found out what love's about
So long ago wonder what I found out

We all got together at the Buffalo Gap
Granpa Gus ain't got no lap
He went to heaven in a rocking chair
What a surprise if he ain't the only one there

You've got a man over eight feet tall
He can sleep in the kitchen with his feet in the hall
You ain't much more than five feet two
I bet you can do anything you've a mind to

This little song means nothing to you
Wouldn't matter at all if you wanted it to
Just part of my life and part of the show
Ain't that good but I thought you might want to know
