The First Song I have recorded in New Zealand!
It's been a long time coming. I have been living in New Zealand for 7 months and I came over here with only my acoustic guitar. Needless to say, I have had no outlet to make recordings up until now. It's a pretty basic setup of two tracks and an old Sanyo cassette deck found at the nearest thrift store...
Hope you enjoy this rendition of a Ricky Nelson classic.
The song simply speaks to me...especially now that I am living in a locale surrounded by mountains, glacial lakes, farms, livestock...and not that many people.
Living the simple life...South Island, New Zealand style.
Hope you enjoy.

lyrics
Sun is setting in the west
The cattle go down to the stream
The redwing settles in her 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 sweetheart darling
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 to be ropin'
No more strays will I see
'round the bend shell be waitin
Just my rifle, pony, and me
Just my rifle, my pony, and me
The cattle go down to the stream
The redwing settles in her 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 sweetheart darling
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 to be ropin'
No more strays will I see
'round the bend shell be waitin
Just my rifle, pony, and me
Just my rifle, my pony, and me
