HOME ON THE RANGE3/4 123 12

Oh, give me a home where the buffalo roam, where the deer and the antelope play

Where seldom is heard a discouraging word, and the skies are not cloudy all day.

CHORUS:

Home, home on the range, where the deer and the antelope play

Where seldom is heard a discouraging word, and the skies are not cloudy all day.

How often at night when the heavens are bright with the light of the glittering stars

Have I stood there a-mazed and asked as I gazed if their glory ex-ceeds that of ours.
