Text:

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, 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 here amazed and asked as I gazed
If their glory exceeds that of ours. 

Then I would not exchange my 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.
