The sun is sinking in the west
|
The cattle go down to the stream
|
The redwing settle in their nest
|
Its time for a cowboy to sing.
|
|
Purple light in the canyon
|
That's where I long to be
|
With my three good companions
|
Jus' my rifle, my pony and me.
|
|
Whiporwill in the willow
|
Sings a sweet melody
|
Ridin' to Amarillo
|
Jus' my rifle, my pony and me.
|
|
[Instrumental]
|
|
No more cows to be ropin'
|
Nor more strays will I see
|
'Round the bend she'll be waitin'
|
For my rifle, my pony and me.
|
|
For my rifle, my pony and me...
