Ohgive me landlots 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 looselet me straddle my old saddle
Underneath the western skies.
On my cayuselet 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 hovels and I can't stand fences
Don't fence me in.

Ohgive me landlots of land under starry skies
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 looselet me straddle my old saddle
Underneath the western skies
On my cayuselet 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 hovels and I can't stand fences
Don't fence me in.
No.
Poppadon't you fence me in
