home on the range lyrics

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

Home on the range
Where the deer and the antelope play
Where seldom is heard
A discouraging word
And skies are not cloudy all day

Well Jackson made deals
A thief down to his heels
Had a long trail of tears
The Smokies could hide
A Cherokee bride
Her brave was shot yesterday

Home on the range
Where the deer and the antelope play
Where seldom is heard
A discouraging word
And skies are not cloudy all day
Mmm, we know it's not Caroline
Your home is your home
The range may be fine
For some but not in my eyes

Home on the range
The Smokies always hide
Cherokee bride
But in their eyes
We know it's not Caroline

Yes, yes, America
Hey, America
Who discovered your ass?

The white man came
"This land is my land
This is your land" they sang

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
