My Rifle, My Pony and Me lyrics

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
