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 my sombrero On the limb of a tree Coming home sweetheart darling Just my rifle, pony and me (Whippoorwill in the willow Sings a sweet melody) Riding to (Riding to) Amarillo (Amarillo) Just my rifle, pony and me (No more cows) no more cows (to be roping) to be roping (No more strays) 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
