SUNSET
IN THE CANON
The sun is sinking in the West
Purpurrot auf den Hängen
Purpurrot das Gestein
Ich bin hier ganz allein
I am laying
on the ground of the canon
and have there my quiet rest
I never did wrong
I did always my best …
I was riding to Amarillo
where she is waiting for me
Aber ich komme nie an
denn ich komme nicht mehr
My sweetheart darling
I come no more
will not kocking on your door
The sun is sinking in the West
The cattle goes down the creek
The redwing settles in the nest
Its time for a cowboy to dream
I have for ever here my rest
with my rifel
my pony and me
Purpurlicht in den canyons
Purpurlicht auf den Höhen
goodby my sweet darling
Wir werden uns
nicht mehr sehen
Rot erglüht das kleine Flußtal
wo ich liege bleich und fahl
where we laying all three:
my rifel my pony and me
Thats I was seeking
Thats I did find
Thats where I long to be
with my three
good compagnons
Just my rifel
my pony and me
Gon a hang my sombrero
on the limb of tree
coming home to my rest
I was a young cowboy
on the streets of Laredo
riding to Amarillo
riding to her
Denn ich lieb sie so sehr
I did never wrong
I was mothers good son
I did always my best
Little darling dont be sad
if I lay here and I`m dead
Wippoorwill in the willow
sings a sweet melody
to my rifel and my pony
and to me ...
Zwei erschoß ich
Der Dritte mich …
I was a young cowboy
and came from Laredo
I never did wrong
I took my way
and came in this canon
I was mother good son
did always my best
and have here my rest
with my rifel
my pony and me
Die Sonne versinkt im Westen
und auf den roten Ästen
schlafen die Wildtauben ein
Ich bin gut aufgehoben
und bin nicht mehr allein
Dunkelblau ist der Himmel
Purpurrot das Gestein
Thats were I long to be
A little star is shining
above me
is announcing
the black eternal night
Wir sind bereit :
We have no fear
Sweetheart
verzeihe mir :
also my rifel
my pony and me ...
