This land is your land
and this land is my land,
from the 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 went a -walkin' that ribbon of highway,
I saw above me that endless skyway,
Saw below me that golden valley,
This land was made for you and
me.
I roamed and rambled,
and I followed my footsteps
Through the sparkling sands
of her diamond desert
And all around me a voice was sounding
This land was made
for you and me
When the sun comes shining,
and I was strolling
And the wheat fields wailing,
and the dusk clouds rolling
The voice was chanting,
and the fog was lifting
This land was 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 forest to
the Gulf Stream waters,
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 other side,
it didn't say nothing,
And that sign was made for you and me.
This land is your land,
and this land is my land,
From the California to
the New York Island,
From the redwood forest
to the Gulf Stream waters,
This land was made for you and me.
In the shadows of the steeple,
I saw my people
In the relief office, I saw my people
As they stood hungry,
I stood there asking
Is this land really made for you and
me?
Nobody living can ever stop me
As I go walking my freedom highway
Nobody living can make me turn back
This land was made for
you and me
This land is your land
and this land is my land
From California to the New York Island,
From Redwood Forest to the
Gulf Stream waters.
This land was made for you and me,
This land is your land
and this land is my land.
From California to the New York Island,
From Redwood Forest to the
Gulf Stream waters.
