"Home on the Range" is a classic cowboy song with lyrics by Brewster M. Higley and music by Daniel E. Kelley.

While it does not appear in the Fallout TV series itself, "Home on the Range", performed by Bryn Terfel, The Tabernacle Choir at Temple Square, and Mack Wilberg, was included on the official Amazon Music playlist "Music from Fallout" promoting the series.

"Home on the Wastes" is a post-apocalyptic variant of the song with changed lyrics. It is played by the Lonesome Drifter in Fallout: New Vegas, after recruiting him for Tommy Torini at the Aces theater.

Lyrics[]

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

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

The red man was pressed from this part of the west
It's not likely he'll ever return
To the banks of Red River where seldom if ever
His flickering campfires still burn

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

How often at night when the heavens are bright
I see the light of those flickering stars
Have I laid there amazed and asked as I gazed
If their glory exceeds that of love

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
