THIS LAND IS YOUR LAND - Springsteen, Seeger, Obama

Pete seeger et Bruce Springsteen à Washington chantent en l'honneur d'Obama (premier président noir des US) devant la statue de Lincoln (qui a aboli l'esclavage) à deux pas de l'endroit où Martin Luther King avait tenu son fameux discours (I had a dream)... Is it a dream ? Ils chantent This land is your land de Woody Guthrie, idole de Bob dylan et icône de la lutte syndicaliste aux USA et plutôt mal vu par tout ce qui ressemble de près ou de loin à un républicain. Impossible de réunir plus de symboles en 5 minutes!

Les Paroles:

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 for you and me.

As I went walking that ribbon of highway
I saw above me that endless skyway
I saw below me that golden valley
This land was made for you and me.

I roamed and I rambled and I followed my footsteps
To the sparkling sands of her diamond deserts
While all around me a voice was sounding
Saying this land was made for you and me.

When the sun came shining, and I was strolling
And the wheat fields waving and the dust clouds rolling
A voice was chanting, As the fog was lifting,
This land was made for you and me.

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 for you and me.
