EVERY DAY, ALONG ABOUT EVENING
WHEN THE SUNLIGHT'S BEGINNING TO FAIL
I RIDE THROUGH THE SLUMBERING SHADOW
ALONG THE NAVAJO TRAIL
WHEN IT'S NIGHT AND CRICKETS ARE CALLING
AND THE CAYOTES ARE MAKING A WAIL
I DREAM BY A SMOLDERING FIRE
ALONG THE NAVAJO TRAIL

I LOVE TO LIE AND LISTEN TO THE MUSIC
WHEN THE WIND IS STRUMMING A SAGEBRUSH CUITAR
WHEN OVER YONDER HILL THE MOON IS CLIMBING
IT ALWAYS FINDS ME WISHING ON A STAR

WELL WHATTAYA KNOW, IT'S MORNING ALREADY
THERE'S THE DAWNING SO SILVER AND PALE
IT'S TIME TO CLIMB INTO MY SADDLE
AND RIDE THE NAVAJO TRAIL
