Lyrics

This Land Is Your Land - Woody Guthrie

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 was made for you and me

As I was walking that 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

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,
That side was made for you and me

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?

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 was 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.
