Oh, give me a home where the buffalo roam,
Where the deer and the
antelope play;
Where seldom is heard a discouraging word
And the skies are not cloudy all
day
Home, home on the range
Where the deer and the antelope play
Where seldom is heard a discouraging word
And the skies are not cloudy all
day.
How often at night when the heavens are bright
With the lights from the
glittering stars
Have I stood there amazed and asked as I gazed
If their glory exceeds
that of ours.
CHORUS
Oh, give me a land where the bright diamond
sand
Flows leisurely down the stream;
There the graceful, white swan goes gliding
along
Like a maid in a heavenly dream.
CHORUS
Where the air is so
pure, the zephyrs so free,
The breezes so balmy and light,
That I would not exchange my
home on the range
For all of the cities so bright.
CHORUS
Oh, I love
those wild flowers in this dear land of ours,
The curlew I love to hear scream,
And I love
the white rocks and the antelope flocks
That graze on the mountain tops green.
CHORUS
This song, according to John Lomax, was first printed in 1911,
and for
twenty years attracted practically no attention. It is
said to have been sung on the doorstep
of Franklin D. Roosevelt's
home by a group of newspaper reporters the night he was
first
elected President.
