"This Land Is Your Land" lyrics

"This Land Is Your Land"
(originally by 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
Yes, this land belongs to you and me

As I went roaming that ribbon of highway
I saw above me that endless skyway
I saw below me that golden valley
Yes, this land belongs to 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 belongs to you and me

I roamed and rambled, I followed my footsteps
'Cross the golden sands of your diamond deserts
And all around me a voice kept saying
Oh, this land belongs to 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 belongs to you and me

I heard my daddy sing about a river
Where he built a landing in the plane
He sang of people above my lantern
He said this land was built 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 belongs to you and me

This land belongs to you and me
This land belongs to you and me
This land belongs to you and me
