Don’t Fence Me In Lyrics

James Brown

Yeah, when things get too thick
And you got to thin out
That′s OK too
But deal with me, do me right

Give me land, lots of land under the troubled skies above
But don't fence me in
Let me ride through the wide open country that I love
Don′t fence me in

Let me lie by myself in the evening breeze
And listen to the murmur of the cottonwood trees
Send me off forever, that I ask you please
But 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 mountain rise

I wanna ride where the West commences
And check out Sacramento and L.A. till I lose my senses
I don't like hovels and I can′t stand fences
But don′t, don't fence me in

Come on, mmm
Don′t, don't exile my thoughts
Turn me loose, yeah, yeah, yeah
Give me some room now
Getting hard out here

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 mountain high

I wanna ride where the West commences
Check out San Diego till I lose my senses
Can′t stand hovels and I don't want no more fences
But don′t, don't fence me in

Give the man a chance
Open up, open up the door
Don't fence me in

What about the kids?
Oh, hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey, hey
Hey, don′t fence me in
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
Hey, what about the kids?
Don′t fence me in

Give me some room
Hey
I can see all night
Yes, I can see you too
