Don't Fence Me In

Don't Fence Me In - Tommy Edwards

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
