The sun is sinking in the west
|
The cattle go down to the stream
|
The redwing settles in the nest
|
It's time for a cowboy to dream
|
|
Purple light in the canyons
|
That's where I long to be
|
With my three good companions
|
Just my rifle, pony and me
|
|
Gonna hang (gonna hang) my sombrero (my sombrero)
|
On the limb (on the limb) of a tree (of a tree)
|
Coming home (coming home) sweetheart darling (sweetheart darling)
|
Just my rifle, pony and me
|
Just my rifle, my pony and me
|
|
(Whippoorwill in the willow
|
Sings a sweet melody
|
Riding to Amarillo)
|
Just my rifle, pony and me
|
No more cows (no more cows) to be roping (to be roping)
|
No more strays will I see
|
Round the bend (round the bend) she'll be waiting (she'll be waiting)
|
For my rifle, pony and me
|
For my rifle, my pony and me
|
