"My Rifle, My Pony And Me"

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)
Coming home (coming home) sweetheart darling (sweetheart darling)
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 roping (to be roping)
No more strays will I see
Round the bend (round the bend) she'll be waiting (she'll be waiting)
For my rifle, pony and me
For my rifle, my pony and me

[Sung by Dean Martin and Ricky Nelson in Rio Bravo]

Deb, you could not have picked a horse more worthy of him - that is one of the single most stunning bay horses that I have EVER seen ( and I have done hundreds of horse shows!) Looks like a beautifully muscled up stallion to me. :love:

Skippy! You are without doubt, a giant among budgies! Are you galloping toward rescuing a fair maiden in distress? Or are you about to lassoo a bad guy and drag him into town for some justice? Who needs a possee when Skippy's on the job?! :)

Brilliant! An inspiration to little Budgeroos everywhere! So cute, handsome, and debonair, even during a bumpy trot...
Hi Deb & Skipper,
Wonderful adventure as usual! I hope this means that Skipper will mosey on up to Calgary for our annual Stampede which starts in two weeks.Git along, little dogie!!
An adventurous cowboy that leaves into the sunset with a promise: "I'll catch that guy! Justice is right next to you" :D
