Oh, give me land, lots of land |
|
Under starry skies above |
|
Don't fence me in |
|
Let me ride through the wild open |
|
Country that I love |
|
Don't fence me in |
|
Let me be by myself in the evening breeze |
|
Listen to the murmur of the cottonwood trees |
|
Send me off forever, but I ask you please |
|
Don't fence me in |
|
Just turn me loose |
|
Let me straddle my old saddle |
|
Underneath the western sky |
|
On my Cayuse |
|
Let me wander over yonder |
|
Till I see the mountains rise |
|
I want to ride to the ridge |
|
Where the west commences |
|
Gaze at the moon till I lose my senses |
|
Can't look at hobbles and I can't stand fences |
|
Don't fence me in |
