| Lyrics |
O give me land, lots of land, and the starry skies above, don't fence me in.
Let me ride through the wide open country that i love, don't fence me in.
O let me be by myself in the evening 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 and i'll straddle on my saddle underneath the western skies.
On my cayoose let me wander over yonder till i see the mountains rise.
O let me 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.
