Don't Fence Me In is the third studio album by the American country music artist Lari White, released in 1996. The album produced two chart singles on the Billboard Hot Country Singles & Tracks (now Hot Country Songs) charts: "Ready, Willing, and Able", which peaked at #20, and "Wild at Heart", which peaked at #56.
"Ready, Willing, and Able" was previously cut by Daron Norwood on his 1995 album of the same name.
"Wild at Heart" subject to controversy due to its music video. Said video was withdrawn from CMT and The Nashville Network after only a month due to protests from mental health organizations. The video featured White as a patient in a psychiatric hospital, encouraging the other patients to start dancing. [3] [4]
