My West

Thanks for mountain, creek, and pine.

Thanks that all of this was mine.

Thanks for Shetland, sorrel, bay.

Thanks for every sunny day.

Thank you for the high, clear air,

Thunderstorms and breezes fair.

Thanks for folks, stoic and brave.

Give pardners a hearty wave.

Take me where the West begins

Please don’t ever fence me in.
