Lyrics:

As I went 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.

I've roamed and rambled, and I 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

When the sun came shining, and I was walking
and the wheat fields waving, and the dust clouds rolling
As the fog was lifting, a voice was chanting:
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

In the squares of the city, in the shadow of the steeple
by the relief office, I seen my people
as they stood there hungry, I stood there asking:
Is this land 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!
