Ridin' Down the Canyon
Sunset Serenity: Riding Down the Canyon's Meaning
Lyrics
When evening chores are over at the ranch house on the plains
After finishing evening tasks at the ranch on the plains
And there's nothing left to do but lay around
When there's nothing else to do but relax
I saddle up my pony and go riding down the trail
Saddling up a pony to go for a ride
Just to watch the desert sun go down
Observing the sunset in the desert
White faced cattle lowing, sagebrush everywhere
Description of the surroundings: cattle, sagebrush
Granite spires are standing all around
Mention of granite spires in the landscape
I'll tell you folks it's heaven to go ridin' down the trail
Expressing the delight of riding in such a scenic place
Just to watch the desert sun go down
Reiteration of the joy in watching the desert sunset
Ridin' down the canyon to watch the sun go down
Heading down the canyon to witness the sunset
A picture that no artist 'ere could paint
Describing the picturesque view that is beyond artistic portrayal
Cactus plants are bloomin' on the mountain side
Noting blooming cactus plants on the mountainside
I hear a coyote calling to its mate
Hearing the call of a coyote to its mate
White faced cattle lowing, sagebrush everywhere
Repetition of the surroundings: cattle, sagebrush
Granite spires are standing all around
Reiteration of the presence of granite spires
I'll tell you folks it's heaven to go ridin' down the trail
Emphasizing the heavenly experience of riding in the trail
Just to watch the desert sun go down
Reaffirmation of the joy in witnessing the desert sunset
White faced cattle lowing, sagebrush everywhere
Continuation of the description of the surroundings
Granite spires are standing all around
Reiteration of granite spires and the beauty of the trail
I'll tell you folks it's heaven to go ridin' down the trail
Stating again the pleasure of riding in the trail
Just to watch the desert sun go down
Reaffirmation of the joy in watching the desert sunset
When evening chores are over at the ranch house on the plains
Repeating the routine of finishing evening chores on the plains
And there's nothing left to do but lay around
When there's nothing else to do but relax
I saddle up my pony and go riding down the trail
Saddling up a pony to go for a ride
Just to watch the desert sun go down
Once again, expressing the joy of watching the desert sunset
White faced cattle lowing, sagebrush everywhere
Repetition of the surroundings: cattle, sagebrush
Granite spires are standing all around
Reiteration of the presence of granite spires
I'll tell you folks it's heaven to go ridin' down the trail
Reaffirmation of the pleasure of riding in the trail
Just to watch the desert sun go down
Once again, expressing the joy in witnessing the desert sunset
