Don't Fence Me In

Well, give me land, lots of land under starry skies above
 But don't fence me in
 Let me ride through that wide open country that i love
 Don't fence me in
 Let me be by myself in the evenin' 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
 Gaze at the moon till i lose my senses
 I don't like hobbles and i can't stand fences
 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
 Gaze at that ole moon until i lose my senses
 I can't stand them hobbles and i don't care for fences
 Don't fence me in
 Oh no... don't you fence me in
