Woodrow Wilson "Woody" Guthrie (July 14, 1912–October 3, 1967) was an American songwriter and folk musician. Guthrie's musical legacy consists of hundreds of songs, ballads and improvised works covering topics from political themes to traditional songs to children's songs. Guthrie performed continually throughout his life with his guitar frequently displaying the slogan "This Machine Kills Fascists". Guthrie is perhaps best known for his song "This Land Is Your Land", which is regularly sung in American schools.

Woody Gutheri God Blessed America For Me
GCG This land is your land, this land is my land GD7G >From Calfornia to Stanen Island (New York) GCG >From the Redwood Forest to the Gulf Stream Waters D7G This land was made for you and me
As I went walking that ribbon of highway And saw above me the endless skyway And saw below me the golden valley, I said This land was made for you and me
(chorus and verse the same)
I roamed and rambled and 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
Was a big High wall there that tried to stop me A sign was painted said; Private Property But on the back side, it didnt say nothing This land was made for you and me
When the sun come shining, then I was strolling In the wheast fields waving, and dusk clouds rolling The voice was chanting as the fog was lifting This land was made for you and me
On bright sunny morning in the shadow of the steeple By the relief office I saw my people As they stood there hungry I stood there wondering if This land was made for you and me
(this song im not really sure about i had a few old woody records around the place and this is what i ended up with
