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.
Oh, give me a land, where the bright diamond
sand, flows leisurely down the stream;
Where the graceful white swan goes gliding
along, Like a maiden of heavenly dreams. (Chorus)
How often at night when the heavens are
bright, With the light of the glittering stars,
Have I stood there amazed and asked as I
gazed, If their glory exceeds that of ours. (Chorus)
This is the Kansas State Song, but the words have been changed some.
This was also the Favorite Song of President Franklin D. Roosevelt.
