My Rifle, My Pony and Me lyrics

The sun is sinkin' in the west.
The cattle go down to the stream.
The redwing settles in her nest.
It's time for a cowboy to dream.

Purple eyes, in the canyon.
That's where I, long to be.
With my three, good companion.
Just my rifle, pony and me.

Gonna hang, my sombrero.
On the limb, of a tree.
Comin' home, sweetheart darlin'
Just my rifle, pony and me.

Whimper-wills, in the willow.
Sings a sweet, melody.
Ridin' to, Amarillo.
Just my rifle, pony and me.

No more cows, to be ropin'.
No more stray, will I see.
'Round the bend, she'll be waitin'.
For my rifle, pony and me.
For my rifle, my pony and me.
