Home on the Range • Oh, give me a home where the buffalo roamAnd the deer and the antelope playWhere seldom is heard a discouraging wordAnd the skies are not cloudy all dayHome, home on the rangeWhere the deer and the antelope playWhere seldom is heard a discouraging wordAnd the skies are not cloudy all day • How often at night when the heavens are brightWith the light from the glittering starsHave I stood there amazed and asked as I gazedIf their glory exceeds that of oursHome, home on the rangeWhere the deer and the antelope playWhere seldom is heard a discouraging wordAnd the skies are not cloudy all dayWhere the air is so pure, the zephyrs so freeThe breezes so balmy and lightThat I would not exchange my home on the rangeFor all of the cities so brightHome, home on the rangeWhere the deer and the antelope playWhere seldom is heard a discouraging wordAnd the skies are not cloudy all dayOh, I love those wild flow'rs in this dear land of oursThe curlew, I love to hear screamAnd I love the white rocks and the antelope flocksThat graze on the mountaintops greenHome, home on the rangeWhere the deer and the antelope playWhere seldom is heard a discouraging wordAnd the skies are not cloudy all day
