Lyrics for Dont Fence Me In by Ella Fitzgerald:
| | | Artist: | Ella Fitzgerald |
| | Album: | Unknown | | Track: | Dont Fence Me In | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 101 | | | | Lyrics: | Wildcat Kelley, lookin' mighty pale,
Was standin' by the sherrif's side
And when the sherrif
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 the 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
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
I can't look at hobbles and I can't stand fences
Don't fence me
in.
Wildcat Kelley, back again in town,
was standin by his sweethearts
side,
And when his sweetheart said "come on let's settle down,
Wildcat raised his head and
cried
Oh, give me land, lots of land under starry skies,
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
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
I can't look at hobbles and I can't stand fences
Don't
fence me in. | | | |  Reddit | X / Twitter | Facebook | Copy link |
