. Tribute to Woody Guthrie (born 100 years ago today, 14-July-1912) This is his great song; http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wxiMrvDbq3s&feature=related LYRICS 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 went a walkin' that ribbon of highway, An' I saw above me that endless skyway. I saw below me, that golden valley, This land was made for you and me. I roamed and rambled and I followed my footsteps, To the sparklin' sands of her diamond deserts, All around me, a voice was a sounding, This land was made for you and me. There was a big high wall there that tried to stop me, Sign was painted said, "Private Property" But on the back side it didn't say nothing, This land was made for you and me. When the sun comes shining, then I was strolling, And the wheat fields waving, and the dust clouds rolling, The voice was chanting as the fog was lifting, 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 redwood forest to the gulf stream waters, This land was made for you and me. (c) 1940 Woody Guthrie This is the great man; http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Woody_Guthrie .
