[edit] This is the correct version with the verse that is seldom seen.

Wild Cat Kelly looking mighty pale, was standing by the sheriff's side, and when that sheriff said: "I'm sending you to jail, Wild Cat raised his head and cried:

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 evening breeze, listen to the murmur of the cottonwood trees, send me off for ever, 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, gaze at the moon till I lose my senses, can't look at hobbles and I can't stand fences, don't fence me in.
