My Rifle, My Pony and Me (Remastered)

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 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

Comin' home, sweetheart, darling

Just my rifle, pony and me

Whippoorwill in the willow

Sings a sweet melody

Ridin' to (ridin' to) Amarillo (Amarillo)

Just my rifle, pony and me

No more cows (no more cows) to be ropin' (to be ropin')

No more strays (no more strays) will I see

'Round the bend ('round the bend), she'll be waitin' (she'll be waitin')

For my rifle, pony and me

For my rifle, my pony and me
