This Land Is Your Land

As I went walking that ribbon of highway
I saw above me that endless skyway
I saw below me that golden valley; and I thought
This land is made for you and me
This land is your land, this land is my land
From California to the New York Island
From the redwood forests to the Gulf Stream waters
This land is made for you and me
I roamed and rambled and I followed my footsteps
To the sparkling souls of our Diamond desert
All around me a voice was chanting
This land is made for you and me
This land is your land...
Sun came shining as I was strolling
And the wheat sheaves waving and the dust clouds rolling,
And a voice was sounding; and the fog was lifting; and it said
This land is made for you and me
This land is your land, this land is my land
From California to the New York Island
From the redwood forests to the Gulf Stream waters
This land is made for you and me

Woody Guthrie
