Album: Borrowed Tales (1995)

My Rifle, My Pony And Me

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.

[Instrumental]

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...
