This is the state song of Kansas.

Lyrics

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
