Oh, here my father, so he told me
how his father’s father had sailed the sea
in the search of a land where prayer is free
and his children’s children, you and me
yeah, I will lay my money down
yes, I will call it home

Oh, what they did not consider are those who were here
oh, those mothers, those fathers, and children dear
who said I will you I think no [?longer?]
for both you and us to call this home

And so it was said to these our new neighbors
you must move on, or we will bury you
we will bury you
and so it was said to these our new neighbors
you must move on, or we will bury you
bury you

Oh, and I lay my soul in grief
and my home is buried on the death that he
oh, and I must take, oh, no rest for me
until those who were buried have rest in peace

Say yet I will no know no other tale
and yet I will mourn no one
for so it was said to these our new friends
you must move on, or we will bury you
we will bury you
and, and so it was said to these our new neighbors
you must move on, or we will bury you

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...

Oh and me, yet I will call it home
me
