Oh give me the land, lots of land Under starry skies above Don't fence me in Let me ride through the wide open Contry that I love Don't fence me in Let me be by myself in the evening brezze Listen to the murmur of the cottenwood trees Send me off foever but I ask you please Don't fence me in Just turn me loose let me straddle my old sattle Underneath the westren skies On my kioose let me wander over younder Till I see the mountian rise I want to ride to the ridge where the west commenses Gaze at the moon till I lose my senenses I can't look at the hobbels and I can't stand the fences Don't fence me in
