Don't Fence Me In

(albüm: A Dozen Hits - 1956)

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 evening breeze
Listen to the murmur of the cottonwood trees
Send me out 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
Can't look at 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

Don't fence me in...
