Rio Bravo, one of the famous western flicks among aficionados of the genre stars the legendary John Wayne. The film also star Dean Martin and Ricky Nelson who also sang together the wistful My Rifle, My Pony And Me in one of the film's scene.
MY RIFLE, MY PONY AND ME
sung by: Dean Martin & Ricky Nelson
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 canyon
That is where I long to be
With my three good companions
Just my rifle, pony and me
Gonna hang my sombrero
On the limb of a tree
Coming home sweet my darling
Just my rifle, pony and me
Whippoorwill in the willow
Sings a sweet melody
Riding to Amarillo
Just my rifle, pony and me
No more cows to be ropin
No more strays will I see
'Round the bend she’ll be waitin’
For my rifle, pony and me
For my rifle, my pony and me
