Gene Autry & Smiley Burnett
When evening chores are over at our ranch house on the plain
And all I've got to do is lay around
I saddle up my pony and ride off down the trail
To watch the desert sun go down.
Ridin' down the canyon to watch the sun go down
A picture that no artist e'er could paint
White faced cattle lowin' on the mountian side
Hear a coyote whinin' for it's mate.
Cactus plants are bloomin', sagebrush every where
Granite spires are standin' all around
I tell you folks it's heaven yo be ridin' down the trail
When the desert sun goes down...
When evening chores are over at our ranch house on the plain
And all I've got to do is lay around
I saddle up my pony and ride off down the trail
To watch the desert sun go down.
Ridin' down the canyon to watch the sun go down
A picture that no artist e'er could paint
White faced cattle lowin' on the mountian side
Hear a coyote whinin' for it's mate.
Cactus plants are bloomin', sagebrush every where
Granite spires are standin' all around
I tell you folks it's heaven yo be ridin' down the trail
When the desert sun goes down...
