The sun is sinking in the west

The cattle go down to the stream

The redwing settle in their nest

Its time for a cowboy to sing

Purple light in the canyon

That where i long to be

With my three good companions

Jus my rifle my pony and me

Whiporwill in the willow

Sings a sweet melody

Ridin to amarillo

Jus my rifle my pony and me

My Rifle My Pony And Me - Don Williams

No more cows to be ropin

Nor more strays will i see

Round the bend shel be waitin br

For my rifle my pony and me

For my rifle my pony and me
