| The sun is sinking in the west
 The cattle go down to the stream
 The redwing settles in her nest
 It's time for the cowboys to dream
 
 Purple light in the canyon
 That's where I long to be
 With my three good companions
 Just my rifle, pony and me
 
 Gonna hang my sombrero
 On the limb of a tree
 Comin' home sweetheart darlin'
 Just my rifle, pony and me
 
 No more cows to be ropin'
 No more strays will I see
 'Round the bend
 She'll be waitin'
 For my rifle, pony and me
 
 For my rifle, my pony and me
