[Verse 1]
Every day, along about evening
Whenever the sunlight's beginning to fail
I ride through the slumbering shadows
Along the Navajo trail

[Verse 2]
Whenever it's night and the crickets are calling
And then the coyotes are making a wail
I dream by a smoldering fire
Along the Navajo trail

[Bridge]
I love to lie and listen to the music
When the wind is strummin' a sagebrush guitar
When over yonder hill, the moon is climbing
It always finds me wishin' on a star

[Verse 3]
Well, what do you know, it's morning already
And there is the dawning, so silver and pale
It's time to climb into my saddle
And ride the Navajo trail

[Refrain]
And ride the Navajo trail
