Oh, give me land, lots of land
Under starry skies above
Don't fence me in
Let me ride through the wild open
Country that I love
Don't fence me in
Let me be by myself in the evening breeze
Listen to the murmer 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
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 above
Don't fence me in
Let me ride through the wild open
Country that I love
Don't fence me in
Let me be by myself in the evening breeze
Listen to the murmer of the cottonwood trees
Send me off forever, but I ask you please
Don't fence me in
Don't fence me in
