[Verse 1] When evening chores are over at our reach house on the plains 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 [Chorus] Riding down the canyon just to watch the sun go down [Verse 2] A picture that no artis ever could paint White faced cattlow lowing on the mountain trail I hear a coyote whining for its mate Cactus plants are blooming sagebrush everywhere Granite spoires are standing all around I tell you folks it's heaven to be riding down the trail [Chorus]
