This land was made for you and me by Woody Guthrie

Man this brought a smile to my face today .
So I thought I'd share it . Full lyrics
with the tune playing to sing along with.

You just can't help but smile singing this song .

1. Check out Utah Phillips

He's done so much to keep the sensibility Woody sang about alive through folk music and "people's history".

2. Utah is great

I'm blessed to be from the Bay Area so I get to see
him play at many events :D

3. Woody is great.... I'm sure you know he is from Oklahoma

Each year they have a Woody Guthrie festival in OK and from time to time Arlo will show up and perform. "Oklahoma Hills" is another song of his I really like, however, "This Land" is an all time classic. As you mentioned, you can't help but feel good when this song is playing. Louis Armstrong's "Wonderful World" is also a feel good song.

Thanks for the post.
