The Lyrics
Close your eyes. Imagine a racist white guy (that should be easy). Now think about him singing this. You're welcome.
This land was your land
But now it's MY land
I'm a rich white man or don't you see
I'll steal your gold rocks
Then give you smallpox
Your land was meant for only me
I've got a gun here, and you've got none, dear
And you know exactly what I want
If you don't get off, I'll blow your head off
Your land was meant for only me
This land was your land
But now it's MY land
People of your kind don't stand a chance
Do as I says now, back to the rez now
Your land was meant for only me
But now it's MY land
I'm a rich white man or don't you see
I'll steal your gold rocks
Then give you smallpox
Your land was meant for only me
I've got a gun here, and you've got none, dear
And you know exactly what I want
If you don't get off, I'll blow your head off
Your land was meant for only me
This land was your land
But now it's MY land
People of your kind don't stand a chance
Do as I says now, back to the rez now
Your land was meant for only me
