This Land Is Your Land

Woody Guthrie

This land is your land, this land is my land
From the California to the New York islands
From the Redwood Forest, to the gulf stream waters
This land was made for you and me

Well, the big high wall there
They try to stop me
Sign painted on it said private property
But the other side didn't say... nuthin'
That side was made for you and me

This land is your land, this land is my land
From the California to the New York islands
From the Redwood Forest, to the gulf stream waters
This land belongs for you and me

On a bright sunny morning
In the shadow of a steeple
By the relief office
I've seen my peoples
And they were hungry
And they were wondering
Does this land belong to you and me?

This land is your land, this land is my land
From the California to the New York islands
From the Redwood Forest, to the gulf stream waters
This land belongs to you and me

You and me!
Everybody!

This land was made for everybody
Each and everyone of us!
The old, the young, the poor, the rich
The black, the brown, yella, the red
Everybody!
No matter what religion to have
No matter what part of the world you come from to here
This piece of dirt under our feet
Doesn't belong to just one person
The person with the most lawyers doesn't own all of it
It belongs to everybody!

I'm not just talking about the dirt right underneath our feet here
The whole world
The whole Earth belongs to everybody
Each and everyone of us
Each and everyone of us on the planet
Owns all the planet

Now what we've gotta do
What we've gotta do is have a plan
I have a dream
I have a vision
That everybody on the planet
Is gonna get together
And they're gonna go
To the amusement park in my mind
Mojo World!
Where there's waterslides
With loop-de-loops
And barbeque sauce in the waterslides
And there's go kart tracks
Going through the middle of the loop-de-loops
And the waterslides
And there's drive-in movie theater!
Showin' Vanishing Point, Two-Lane Blacktop and Thunder Road every night
And you can always buy
Cheez Whiz, Beanie Weenies, Royal Crown Pomade
And liquor stores open 24 hours a day, everyday!
Yeah!
And there's no fool wearin' a little badge saying "We ID under 25"
If they ID you
And you're old enough to buy it
Then you get it free!
That's Mojo World!
Yeah and every Saturday night
Tribute to a great American hero
It's Evel Knievel Saturday Night
There at Mojo World
There's cheap beer, live music, 24 hour record store
You can buy Brunswick Stew
With hotdogs and coleslaw on 'em

Y'all probably sayin'
Mojo, how do I get to this place? I wanna go
Everybody!
Everybody wants to go to Mojo World
Let me tell you what you gotta do

Turn right at the light
Go passed the trailer parks
Stand naked, singin', in the blazing sunlight of liberty
We gotta sing...
We gotta sing...

This land is your land, this land is my land
From the 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 the California to the New York islands
From the Redwood Forest, to the gulf stream waters
This land was belongs for you and me

You and me!
Everybody!

Yah-oow!
Oowww!
Whooaaah!
Oohhaaaw!
Wa wa wa wa wa ohhaah!

This land!
