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)
Comin' home (comin' home)
Sweetheart darlin' (sweetheart darlin')
Just my rifle, pony and me
Just my rifle, my pony and me
Whip-poor-will in the willow
Sings a sweet melody
Riding to Amarillo
Just my rifle, pony and me
No more cows (no more cows)
To be ropened (to be ropened)
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
