THIS LAND IS YOUR LAND; WORDS AND MUSIC BY WOODY GUTHRIE 1940
#CHORUS:
THIS LAND IS YOUR LAND; THIS LAND IS MY LAND
FROM CALI - FORNIA TO THE NEW YORK ISLAND
FROM THE REDWOOD FOREST
TO THE GULF STREAM WATERS
THIS LAND WAS MADE FOR YOU AND ME
#1. AS I WENT WALKING THAT RIBBON OF HIGHWAY
I SAW A-BOVE ME THAT ENDLESS SKYWAY
I SAW BE-LOW ME THAT GOLDEN VALLEY
THIS LAND WAS MADE FOR YOU AND ME
#CHORUS:
#2.
I ROAMED AND RAMBLED
AND I FOLLOWED MY FOOTSTEPS
TO THE SPARKLING SANDS
OF HER DIAMOND DESERTS
AND ALL A-ROUND ME A VOICE WAS SOUNDING
THIS LAND WAS MADE FOR YOU AND ME
#CHORUS:
#3. WHEN THE SUN CAME SHINING
THEN I WAS STROLLING
AND THE WHEAT FIELDS WAVING
AND THE DUST CLOUDS ROLLING
A VOICE WAS CHANTING AS THE FOG WAS LIFTING
THIS LAND WAS MADE FOR YOU AND ME
#CHORUS:
#4.
AS I WENT WALKING; I SAW A SIGN THERE.
AND ON THE SIGN IT SAID “NO TRES-PASSING”
BUT ON THE OTHER SIDE I DIDN’T SAY NOTHING
THAT SIDE WAS MADE FOR YOU AND ME
#CHORUS:
#5.
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
#CHORUS:
#6.
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
#CHORUS:
