    As for me I vote for Woody Guthrie — This land is your land, this land is my land.

      Some verses to that song you don’t normally hear:

      There was a big high wall there that tried to stop me;
      Sign was painted, it said private property;
      But on the back side it didn’t say nothing;
      This land was made for you and me.

      As I went walking I saw a sign there
      And on the sign it said “No Trespassing.”
      But on the other side it didn’t say nothing,
      That side was made for you and me.

      Nobody living can ever stop me,
      As I go walking that freedom highway;
      Nobody living can ever make me turn back
      This land was made for you and me.

      In the squares of the city, In the shadow of a steeple;
      By the relief office, I’d seen my people.
      As they stood there hungry, I stood there asking,
      Is this land made for you and me?
