Don't Fence Me In

from Classic Songs & Traditional Tunes by Andy Z

/

lyrics

Wildcat Willie, looking mighty pale
Was standin’ by the sheriff’s side
And when that sheriff said, “I’m sendin’ you to jail”
Wildcat raised his head and cried

Oh, give me land, lots of land, under starry skies above
Don’t fence me in

Let me ride through that wide open country that I love
Don’t fence me in

Let me be by myself in the evenin’ 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
‘Til I see the mountains rise

I want to ride to the ridge where the west commences
(An’) gaze at the moon till I lose my senses

I can't look at hobbles an' I can’t stand fences
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
‘Til I see the mountains rise

I want to ride to the ridge where the west commences
(An’) gaze at the moon till I lose my senses

I can't look at hobbles an’ I can’t stand fences
Don’t fence me in
