My Rifle, My Pony and Me
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
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's 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
No more cows to be ropin'
Nor more strays will I see
'Round the bend she'll be waitin'
For my rifle, my pony and me
For my rifle, my pony and me
