Crosby, Stills & Nash - Taken at All Lyrics

This is me can you take another look


Did I see you looking blindly at your book
Is it all that you thought that you thought it took
Can it be taken at all

Were you looking for signs along the way


Can you see by your lonely light of day
Is this road really the only way
Can this road be taken at all

We lost it on the highway down the dotted line


You were going your way I was going mine
We lost in on the highway things are out of sight
You were going your way trying to make a light
along the way

Can you see by your lonely light of day


Is this road really the only way
Can this road be taken taken at all

Woody Guthrie - This Land Is Your Land Lyrics

Chorus:
As I was walking a ribbon of highway
I saw above me an endless skyway
I saw below me a golden valley
This land was made for you and me
Chorus
I've roamed and rambled and I've 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
Chorus
The sun comes shining as I was strolling
The wheat fields waving and the dust clouds rolling
The fog was lifting a voice come chanting
This land was made for you and me
Chorus
In the squares of the city - In the shadow of the steeple
Near the relief office - I see my people
And some are grumbling' and some are wondering'
If this land's still made for you and me.
