"Don't Fence Me In" lyrics
"Don't Fence Me In"
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
Let me be by myself in the evenin' breeze
And listen to the murmur of the cottonwood trees
Send me off forever but I ask you please
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 mountains rise
I want to ride to the ridge where the west commences
And gaze at the moon till I lose my senses
And I can't look at hovels and I can't stand fences
Don't fence me in
Oh, give me land, lots of land under starry skies
Don't fence me in
Let me ride through the wide open country that I love
Don't fence me in
Let me be by myself in the evenin' breeze
And listen to the murmur of the cottonwood trees
Send me off forever but I ask you please
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 mountains rise
Ba boo ba ba boo
I want to ride to the ridge where the west commences
And gaze at the moon till I lose my senses
And I can't look at hovels and I can't stand fences
Don't fence me in
No
Poppa, don't you fence me in

Bette Midler - "Wind Beneath My Wings" Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
It must have been cold there in my shadow,
to never have sunlight on your face.
You were content to let me shine, that's your way.
You always walked a step behind.
So I was...
Natalie Cole - "The Very Thought Of You" The very thought of you,
and I forget to do,
the little ordinary things
that everyone ought to do.
I'm living in a kind of daydream.
I'm happy as a king.
And foolish though it may seem

The Manhattan Transfer - "Scotch And Soda" Scotch and soda
Mud in your eye
Baby do I feel high
Oh me, oh my do I feel high (so high)
Dry martini, jigger of gin
Oh what a spell you've got me in
Oh my, do I feel high
People don't believe me...
Sammy Davis Jr. - "Bye Bye Blackbird" Pack up all my cares and woe
Here I go swinging low
Bye bye blackbird
Where somebody waits for me
Sugar's sweet
So is she
Bye bye blackbird
No one here can love
And understand me
Ah what hard luck...
Liza Minnelli - "All That Jazz" Come on, babe
Why don't we paint the town?
And all that jazz
I'm gonna rouge my knees
And roll my stockings down
And all that jazz
Start the car
I know a whoopee spot
Where the gin is cold
But the...
