Don't Fence Me In
Bing Crosby
Introd: 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 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 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 And gaze at the moon till I lose my senses; I can’t look at hobbles and I can’t stand fences Don’t fence me in.
