| Don't Fence Me In | ||||
|

| I have walked a hundred miles And cried a hundred tears I've heard the sound of innocence I lost throughout the years And I've stumbled to my bed In so many Hotel rooms And forgot too many faces all too soon And if you stand there and ask of me How many lies I've been told How many times I've been left out in the cold Chorus: Don't fence me in don't leave me out 'Cos I don't know what life's about Though I've been there I have my doubts of where I am Don't fence me in don't bleed me dry Don't try to tell me where or why Before another day goes by don't fence me in I have seen a blood red sky Above a quiet place And watched a man be ridiculed For the colour of his face And I heard a thousand tongues All twisted by the truth Condemning all the guilty without proof So don't just stand there and laugh at me And turn your face to the wall Well I don't know if the preacher prays for all Chorus (repeat) | ||||
