I left my faithful pony grazing, in clover by the old cor- -ral

The stars are growing dim my darling, they say my ship will sail at dawn
C F C G C
So whisper softly that you love me, just two more hours and I'll be gone

I traded my saddle for a rifle

So kiss me darling we must part

But when we've won this final victory

I'll trade my rifle for your heart

I traded my saddle for a rifle

So kiss me darling we must part

But when we've won this final victory

I'll trade my rifle for your heart
