Dean Martin - My Rifle, My Pony And Me lyrics

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

(Whippoorwill 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
