When evening chores are over at the ranch house on the plains And there's nothing left to do but lay around I'll saddle up my pony and go riding down the trail Just to watch the desert sun go down White faced cattle lowing, sagebrush everywhere Granite spires are standing all around I'll tell you boys it's heaven to go ridin' down the trail Just to watch the desert sun go down Ridin' down the canyon to watch the sun go down A picture that no artist here could paint Cactus plants are bloomin' on the mountain side I hear a coyote calling to it's mate White faced cattle lowing, sagebrush everywhere
Granite spires are standing all around I'll tell you boys it's heaven to go ridin' down the trail Just to watch the desert sun go down When evening chores are over at the ranch house on the plains And there's nothing left to do but lay around I'll saddle up my pony and go riding down the trail Just to watch the desert sun go down White faced cattle lowing, sagebrush everywhere Granite spires are standing all around I'll tell you boys it's heaven to go ridin' down the trail Just to watch the desert sun go down Just to watch the desert sun go down
