Sun goes down, work's all done,
Evenin' cheer at last
Moon comes up behind the hills I love
And I'm ridin' home, I'm ridin' home.

(See that lonesome cowboy
Ridin' down that lonesome trail.)
Moonlight shadows sway into the tune of my lonesome way
Well, I'm ridin' home, I'm ridin' home.

--- Instrumental ---

Bed down doggies, rest awhile
I'll be back tomorrow morn
And take you down to where the waters flow
But now I'm ridin' home, I'm ridin' home.

(See that lonesome cowboy
Ridin' down that lonesome trail)
Moonlight shadows sway into the tune of my lonesome way
Well, I'm ridin' home, I'm ridin' home.

I'm ridin' home, I'm ridin' home...
