[Intro]
Wildcat Kelly lookin' 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
[Verse 1]
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
[Verse 2]
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
[Bridge]
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
[Verse 3]
I want to ride to the ridge where the West commences
Gaze at the moon 'til I lose my senses
I can't look at hobbles and I can't stand fences
Don't fence me in
[Piano Solo]
[Bridge]
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
[Verse 3]
I want to ride to the ridge where the West c-c-commences
Gaze at the moon 'til I lose my senses
I can't stand hobbles and I can't stand fences
Don't fence me in
Don't fence me in
[Outro]
Wildcat Kelly back again in town
Was sittin' by his sweetheart's side
And when his sweetheart said, "C'mon, let's settle down"
Wildcat raised his head and cried
Don't fence me in
Don't fence me in
Don't fence me in
Don't fence me in
