(x2) 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 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 (x2) I've roamed and rambled and I've followed my footsteps To the sunny-bright sands of her diamond deserts And all around me a voice came singing Singing 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 It was early one morning as I was strolling The wheat fields waving and the dust clouds rolling The fog was lifting a voice come chanting 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 (x2) Nobody living can ever stop me As I go walking that freedom highway Nobody living can make me turn back 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

À propos de la chanson

La chanson évoque la beauté et la diversité des paysages américains en exprimant un sentiment d'appartenance. Elle parle de la liberté de se déplacer à travers ce vaste pays, des montagnes aux forêts, jusqu'aux plages. À travers ces descriptions, l'idée principale est que cette terre appartient à tous, sans distinction, et qu'elle est un lieu de rassemblement partagé. Écrite dans un contexte de lutte pour les droits civiques et d'égalité, les paroles résonnent avec un appel à l'unité et à la solidarité. La mélodie et les mots invitent à célébrer les richesses de la nature et à affirmer notre droit de vivre librement dans ce pays. C'est un hymne à la liberté et à l'inclusion, rappelant que chaque individu a une place sur cette terre.
