This Land Is Your Land

This land is your land, this land is my land

From California, well, to the New York island

From the redwood forest, to the gulf stream waters

I tell ya: This land was made for you and me

As I went walking down that ribbon of highway

I saw above me, oh, that endless skyway

Now I saw below me that golden valley

And I said: This land was made for you and me

As I was walking, now, they tried to stop me

They put up a sign that said, oh, it said: Private Property

Well, on the back side, you know it said nothing

So, it must be that side was made for you and me

One bright sunny morning, well, in the shadow of a steeple

Down by the Welfare office, I saw my people

You know, now, they stood hungry, I stood wondering

I was wondering if this land was made for you and me

This land is your land, this land is my land

From Riverside, California, oh, to Staten Island

Well, oh, down to Modesto, Georgia, oh, don't forget to say Philadelphia, oh

We moving down to Mississippi, oh, Houston, Texas, ah LA

Yeah, you know, ah, this land is your land, this land is my land

This land is your land

You've got to believe, this my land

Ooh, this land was made for you and me
