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. This land was made for you and me.

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 sign 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)
