Dont Fence Me In Lyrics

Dont Fence Me In lyrics

Oh, give me land, lots of land under starry skies above
Don't fence me
in
Let me ride through the wide open country that I love
Don't fence me
in
Let me be by myself in the evenin' breeze
And 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 skies
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
And gaze at the moon till I lose my senses
And I can't look at
hobbles and I can't stand fences
Don't fence me in

Oh, give me land,
lots of land under starry skies
Don't fence me in
Let me ride through the
wide country that I love
Don't fence me in
Let me be by myself in the
evenin' breeze
And 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 skies (do do-do,
do do do-do-do-do)
On my cayuse, let me wander over yonder
Till I see the
mountains rise (ba be ba ba ba)

I want to ride to the ridge where the
West commences
And gaze at the moon till I lose my senses
And I can't
look at hobbles and I can't stand fences
Don't fence me in, no
Pop, oh
don't you fence me in
