Lyrics

[00:03.72] Don't Fence Me In
[00:05.61]
[00:08.71] Oh, give me land, lots of land under starry skies above,
[00:15.90] Don't fence me in.
[00:19.94] Let me ride through the wide open country that I love,
[00:25.53] Don't fence me in.
[00:29.76] Let me be by myself in the evenin' breeze,
[00:35.46] And listen to the murmur of the cottonwood trees,
[00:40.24] Send me off forever but I ask you please,
[00:45.43] Don't fence me in.
[00:48.64]
[00:48.88] Just turn me loose, let me straddle my old saddle
[00:53.56] Underneath the western skies.
[00:56.21]
[00:58.73] On my Cayuse, let me wander over yonder
[01:03.50] Till I see the mountains rise.
[01:06.04]
[01:08.54] I want to ride to the ridge where the west commences
[01:15.77] And gaze at the moon till I lose my senses
[01:19.98] And I can't look at hovels and I can't stand fences
[01:25.70] Don't fence me in.
[01:28.61]
[01:37.40] Oh, give me land, lots of land under starry skies,
[01:43.04] Don't fence me in.
[01:47.39] Let me ride through the wide open country that I love,
[01:52.73] Don't fence me in.
[01:57.11] Let me be by myself in the evenin' breeze
[02:02.44] And listen to the murmur of the cottonwood trees
[02:07.29] Send me off forever but I ask you please,
[02:12.26] Don't fence me in
[02:15.31]
[02:16.06] Just turn me loose, let me straddle my old saddle
[02:20.36] Underneath the western skies
[02:22.93]
[02:26.01] On my Cayuse, let me wander over yonder
[02:30.68] Till I see the mountains rise.
[02:33.28] Ba boo ba ba boo.
[02:35.30]
[02:36.26] I want to ride to the ridge where the west commences
[02:42.28] And gaze at the moon till I lose my senses
[02:46.50] And I can't look at hobbles and I can't stand fences
[02:52.01] Don't fence me in.
[02:55.28] No.
[02:57.32] Poppa, don't you fence me in
[03:00.16]
