Ridin' Down the Canyon

Willie Nelson · One for the Road [1979]

When evening chores are over at our rach 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



Ridin' down the canyon just to watch the sun go down

A picture that no artis ever could paint

White faced cattlow lowin' on the mountain trail

I hear a coyote whinin' for its mate

Cactus plants are bloomin' sagebrush everywhere

Granite spoires are standing all around

I tell you folks it's heaven to be ridin' down the trail

To watch the desert sun go down

[ guitar ]

Cactus plants are bloomin'...

To watch the desert sun go down
