oh my father before my father went
sailed over the ocean to save his fate
found a new land and called it home
and procede to make his house and reign
fate on my head i wouldn’t be here
fate on my father oh

lying in the sand was drawn back in here
and promises made not to transverse it
came on a light i know
laid down and called it home
so we fight with those who burned me
before me and mine
i pray forgiveness
pray forgive me

and so before my time
i pray that those in me
lay on my vine and die
say it so when we plant and seeds here
and place out the color replace all this
we say that it’s all for greatest good
we say that we call it home

and so this war
so does the thing that
that from a child the mothers know it
and so we go away

oh the gun and the bullet
steal my sister
brother would you be home
yeah that’s all

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
we'll see for
lay down and more die
