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
