This Land Is Your Land

Elizabeth Mitchell

This land is your land
This land is my land
From CaliforniaTo the New York Islands
From the redwood forest
To the Gulf stream waters
This land was made for you and me

As I was walking
The 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

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
This land is my land
From California
To the New York Islands
From the redwood forest
To the Gulf stream waters
This land was made for you and me

When the sun came shining
And I was strolling
And the wheatfields waving
And the dust clouds rolling
And the fog was lifting
A voice was chanting
This land was made for you and me

As I went walking
I saw a sign there
And on the sign it
Said, "No trespassing"
But on the otherside
It didn't say nothing
That side was made for you and me

This land is your land
This land is my land
From California
To the New York islands
From the redwood forest
To the Gulf stream waters
This land was made for you and me

In the shadow of the steeple
I saw my people
But I really thought this
I′ve seen my people
As they stood there hungry
I stood there asking
Is this land made for you and me?

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
This land is my land
From California
To the New York Islands
From the redwood forest
To the Gulf stream waters
This land was made for you and me

This land is your land
This land is my land
From California
To the New York Islands
From the redwood forest
To the Gulf stream waters
This land was made for you and me
This land was made for you and me
