Dont Fence Me In — текст песни (Louis Armstrong)

Well, give me land, lots of land under starry skies above

But dont fence me in

Let me ride through that wide open country that I love

Dont 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

Dont 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 dont like hobbles and I cant stand fences

Dont fence me in



(instrumental break)



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 that ole moon until I lose my senses

I cant stand them hobbles and I dont care for fences

Dont fence me in



Oh no...dont you fence me in
