    • Home on The Range by Gene Autry - UPDATED
      "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..."
      Gene Autry sang this song nostalgically about the place where cowboys feel comfortable and happy.
