Lyrics

(Melody by Daniel E. Kelley, Lyrics by Brewster M. Higley, 1870s)

1. 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.

Refrain
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.

2. Oh! give me a land where the bright diamond sand
Throws its light from the glittering streams,
Where glideth along the graceful white swan,
Like the maid in her heavenly dreams. Refrain

Recorder Notes D, E, F#, G, A, B, C, D’
