Young, Neil - This Land Is Your Land Lyrics
[Chorus:]
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 was walking a ribbon of highway
I saw above me an endless skyway
I saw below me a golden valley
This land was made for you and me
[Chorus]
I've roamed and rambled and I've followed my footsteps
To the sparkling sands of her diamond deserts
And all around me a voice was sounding
[Chorus]
The sun comes shining as I was strolling
The wheat fields waving and the dust clouds rolling
The fog was lifting a voice come chanting
This land was made for you and me
[Chorus]
As I was walkin' - I saw a sign there
And that sign said - no tress passin'
But on the other side... it didn't say nothin!
Now that side was made for you and me!
[Chorus]
In the squares of the city - In the shadow of the steeple
Near the relief office - I see my people
And some are grumblin' and some are wonderin'
If this land's still made for you and me.
[Chorus 2x]

Young, Neil This Land Is Your Land Comments
Americana from a GREAT canadian!
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 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.
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.
When the sun came shining, and I was strolling,
And the wheat fields waving and the dust clouds rolling,
As 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 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?
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.
Let Neil become a U.S. citizen!
I love Neil Young....
USA is not FED ! and not politician elite ! neither of them ....we the people are U S A !!! democracy should be law here and not capitalism trash !!! work and bread , and bread and work ...and not slave and master or master and slave !!!
before law is freedom the highest value we stand for ....! and law is opposite of freedom ( that means the right to object ....we almost all forgot what that means ) right from the beginning of our all history ....from free greek to free greek...but the natives were right two hundred years ago ... how can you buy the earth , the water and the sun and the sky above ?
this land is made by hard working men and not of businessmen scum of dollar bills and depts ....FREEDOM !!!
FIST FIST FIST !!! workers unite workers fight !!!
All the lyrics still apply 73 years later.
I'm Australian and I love this song
