Don't Fence Me In

Oh, 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
 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 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
 Too many words, 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
 Oh, give me land, lots of land, and the starry skies above
