Cole Porter
Don’t Fence Me In
[Verse 1]
Oh, give me land, lots of land under starry skies above
Don't fence me in
Let me ride through the high flyin' city that I love
Don't fence me in
Let me be by myself in the evenin' breeze
And listen to the murmur of the tall concrete
Send me off forever but I ask you, please
Don't fence me in
Now put the spin in my wheels, let me run away with my thoughts
Don't fence me in
Say freedom is the word, Heaven's own work of art
Don't fence me in

[Chorus]
I wanna ride to the ridge where the view commences
Gaze at the moon till I lose my senses
My heart stays on the road 'cause I can't stand fences
Don't fence me in (Free)

[Verse 2]
Just turn me loose, let me straddle my own saddle
Underneath the city lights
On my Cayuse, let me wander over yonder
Till I see the morning sky
[Chorus]
I wanna ride to the ridge where the view commences
Gaze at the moon till I lose my senses
My heart stays on the road 'cause I can't stand fences
Don't fence me in
Don't fence me in
Don't fence me in
Don't fence me in

[Outro]
Don't fence me in
Don't fence me in
Don't fence me in
Don't fence me in
Don't fence me in
Don't fence me in
