Don't Fence Me In Lyrics

Tommy Edwards 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
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 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
Don't fence me in

No, don't fence me in
No, don't, don't fence me in
