Gotta keep my hands busy or they'll make a noose And lately I don't have anything to lose Work away the flesh, work away the bone Work dawn to dusk hoping to atone I've got so many sins to work away Working off these sins every single day If my hands stop moving then my head will start Then it won't be long til I lose my heart Gotta bend over! (Bend over!) Or today will be my last The lord and the company own my ass No hope for future! (No future!) No time for the past It's the curse of the working class Got a hunch in my back, knees hurt when it rains Gotta a bottle of whiskey to numb the pain We were meant for more than slaving birth til death Believing that god says we are his blessed Gotta bend over! (Bend over!) Or today will be my last The lord and the company own my ass No hope for the future! (No future!) No time for the past It's the curse of the working class So pass me the shovel and pass me the flask I'll dig my own grave for the company brass I'll give my every breath, right down to the last Cause no one survives the curse of the working class

As I was walking that 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 This land is your land This land is my land From California to the New York Islands This land was made for you and me As I was walking I saw a sign there And the sign said "No Trespassing" But on the other side it didn't say nothing That side was made for you and me This land is your land This land is my land From California to the New York Islands This land was made for you and me Nobody living can ever stop me As I go walking that freedom highway Nobody living can make me turn back now This land was made for you and me This land is your land This land is my land From California to the New York Islands This land was made for you and me In the squares of the city In the shadow of the steeple At the relief office I see my people Some were asking, some were wondering If this land is still made for you and me This land is your land This land is my land From California to the New York Islands This land was made for you and me This land is your land This land is my land From California to the New York Islands This land was made for you and me
