And how about Rick Nelson's guitar with the rose painted on it? I have an old Gibson and have often thought about getting a rose painted on it. What do y'all think?

I love this song, and the movie. Rick Nelson on guitar don't forget, and Walter Brennan waiting to wail into "Get Along Home Cindy Cindy".

My Rifle Pony and Me
- from the John Wayne western "Rio Bravo"
- sung by Dean Martin

Sun is sinking in the west
The cattle go down to the stream
The redwing settles in the 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 sweet my darling
just my rifle pony and me

Whipporwill 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
For my rifle pony and me
For my rifle my pony and me
