this land

(WITH APOLOGIES TO WOODY GUTHERIE)

 

This land ain't your land.

This land ain't my land.

From wiretapping

To the bill collectors

From Wall Street hucksters

To the cost of health care.

This land was stole from you and me.

 

As I was walkin'

On down the highway

I saw "Foreclosed" signs

On the family houses

With broken windows

And the broken children.

This land was stole from you and me.

 

This land ain't honest

This land ain't human.

From infomercials

To the INS raids.

From drive-by shootings

To the waterboarding.

This land ain't worth a damn to me.
