My Rifle, My Pony, And Me

My Rifle, My Pony And Me

Don Williams

Dimitri Tiomkin / Paul Francis Webster

Album: Borrowed TalesThe 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 singPurple light in the canyon

That's where I long to be

With my three good companions

Jus' my rifle, my pony and meWhiporwill in the willow

Sings a sweet melody

Ridin' to Amarillo

Jus' my rifle, my pony and meNo 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
