Getting the stallion hitched

Cole Porter, the legendary Broadway composer and lyricist, sure knew what he was talking about in the 1930s when he wrote the famous song, "Don't Fence Me In," about a man who would prefer to roam carefree in the fields than be tied down. "Let me ride though the wide open country that I love, don't fence me in/ Just turn me loose, let me straddle my old saddle underneath the western skies," crooned Bing Crosby with the Andrews Sisters back in the days when that song was a hit.
