Holly Cole Don't Fence Me In
Ah, 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
Just let me be by myself in the evening breeze
I'll listen to the murmur of the cottonwood trees
Send me off forever but I ask you please
Oh, don't fence me in
Just turn me loose, let me straddle my old saddle
Underneath those western skies, oh yeah
On my cayuse, let me wander over yonder
Till I see the mountains rise
I want to ride to the ridges where the west commences
Gaze at the moon till I lose my senses
I can't look at hobbles and I can't stand fences
Oh don't, 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 ridges where the west commences
I'll gaze at the moon till I lose my senses
I can't look at hobbles and I can't stand fences
Oh, don't fence me in, ahhhh
Oh, don't fence me in, yeah
Ah don't, don't fence me in, ahhhh
Oh don't, oh don't fence me in now
Don't fence me in
Don't fence me in
Don't fence me in
