Well I roll down that ribbon of highway
I saw above me the endless sky
I saw below me the golden valley
This land was made for you and me

Well I roamed and rambled and I've followed my footsteps
To the sparkling sands of her diamond deserts
And all around me a voice was callin'
They said 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

Well the sun was shining, so I went strollin'
And the wheat fields wavin' and the dust clouds rollin'
And a voice was soundin' and the fog was liftin'
The voice said 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

I said hey Mister President
I wanna talk about the government
All about poverty, that's in our souls
What about the welfare
Mister seems like you don't care
I know this land was made for you and me
I said hey Mister President
Wanna talk about the government
And what about the poverty, that's in our souls
Hey, hey, hey, what about the welfare
Mister seems like you don't care
And I know that this land was made for you and me

Hey, hey, hey, hey Mister President
I wanna talk about the government
Oh now what about the poverty, that's deep inside our souls
No now tell me don't you give a damn about the welfare
'Cause Mister it seems like you just don't care
I know this land was made for you and me
