THIS LAND IS YOUR LAND

(by Woody Guthrie)


	This land is your land, 
	  this land is my land
	From California 
	  to the New York island,
	From the redwood forest 
	  to the Gulf Stream waters;
	This land was made for you and me.

As I was walking 
  that ribbon of highway
I saw above me 
  that endless skyway;
I saw below me 
  that golden valley;
    This land was made for you and me.

	This land is your land ...

I've roamed and rambled 
  and I followed my footsteps
To the sparkling sands of 
  her diamond deserts;
And all around me 
  a voice was sounding;
    This land was made for you and me.

	This land is your land ...

When the sun came shining, 
  and I was strolling,
And the wheat fields waving 
  and the dust clouds rolling,
As the fog was lifting 
  a voice was chanting:
    This land was made for you and me.

	This land is your land ...

As I went walking 
  I saw a sign there,
And on the sign 
  it said "No Trespassing."
But on the other side 
  it didn't say nothing.
    That side was made for you and me.

	This land is your land ...

In the shadow of the steeple 
  I saw my people,
By the relief office 
  I seen my people;
As they stood there hungry, 
  I stood there asking
    Is this land made for you and me?

	This land is your land ...

Nobody living 
  can ever stop me,
As I go walking 
  that freedom highway;
Nobody living 
  can ever make me turn back
    This land was made for you and me.

	This land is your land ...
