What’s to say? That we actually have anything to do with what our government does? Ha! Even Woody Guthrie knew the truth. They just leave that verse out of his “anthem”.

No Man’s Land

Easy come, easy go. Nothing lasts for long
Pay your dollar. See the show. Do a little sing-a-long
This is your land. This is my land
This is No Man’s Land

What do you do when your job falls thru
and you still have mouths to feed?
What do you do when the Creek and the Sioux
say, “Join the family”?
Where is your ass when you’re out of gas
and you still have miles to go?
The old hoot owl and the coyote’s howl just say, “I told you so”?
Where do you go?

And what do you do when your dreams come true
and you still got years to live?
What do you do when your lover’s thru
and you still have love to give?
What do you do if you’re a rough neck’s son
and the rig is still and the work is done?
and your daddy is dying and your mamma is too
and your children just stand there looking at you?
WHAT?

Easy come, easy go. Nothin’ lasts for long.
Pay your dollar. See the show. Do a little sing-a-long
This land ain’t your land. This land ain’t my land
This is no man’s land.

This land was your land. This land was my land
from Ellis Island to the Gulf of Petroleum
“This is your land and you make the rules”
“We are your servants. We do as you say.”
“You vote for us. We represent you.”

This is your land. This is my land
from Ellis Island to the Gulf of Petroleum…
