Words and Music © 2006 by the "Tuneslingers" Bob May and Gman Blues.
This is a treatment of the cowboy song that stalked me for months. I engaged Bob, his gifts are extreme.


We worked on this across the virtual canyon of cyberspace. Technology once again empowers the imagination.

Hidalgo and Me


(May/Wesselhoff)


Scent of sage on the breeze,
Hidalgo and me.
Through dust dry creek beds, cuts and canyons.
There ain’t two more compatible companions.


I could’ve chose another life;
Bed down with a wife.
Some folks just don’t know what their missin’.
I can hear a hoot owl callin’ if I listen.


Stone canyon colors, paint my “Quiet Time”
I can’t contain the wonder. I gave up even tryin’


Something caught in my eyes,
Comin’ over the rise.
Dry wind can send that sand a flyin’
Hidalgo looks at me like he’s not buyin’.


Stone canyon colors, paint my “Quiet time”
I can’t contain the wonder. I gave up even tryin’.


Scent of sage on the breeze,
Hidalgo and me.
Here and there’s a stretch of fence needs tightenin‘.
Sunset so beautiful it’s frightenin’,


Sunset so beautiful it’s frightenin’.
