Let's create a Cache Valley song!
Creative protesters in Washington DC wrote new lyrics for the "This land is our land" song
We tried to copy down a lot of their new lyrics. They are from the start of the video below.
If a group of self-organizing folks were able to fix this up and develop our own Cache Valley version, it would be fun to sing it at a future event.
The lyrics would need to be posted online for people to pull up on their phones
This land is my land, This land is your land
From California to the New York island
We are the people, We must be heard now
This land was made for you and me
Now Trump is ruling, Like a dictator
No one to stop him, Not even Congress
We are the people, We must be heard now
This land was made for you and me
Where are the Republicans, Who love their country?
Who use their voices, to do what’s right now?
We are the people, We must be heard now
This land was made for you and me
We must be heard now, We must show courage
This land was made for you and me
Let’s band together, To save our nation
It’s democratic, Not Oligarchic
Let’s get together, To save our nation
This land was made for you and me
You must be heard now, You must have courage
Let’s be together, To save the nation
Hands off our money, Because we earned them
Through paying taxes, What does it take now?
To fix the problem
No one to stop them, Not even Congress
We are the people, We must be heard now
Will do a strike now, To show the nation
That we are serious
This land was made for you and me
Let’s do what’s right now~
Please email WethepeopleCV@gmail.com if you have developed better lyrics and/or are willing to lead chants or songs at a future event.
THANKS for helping out.
Let's rise up on this emergency to save our democracy, freedoms, institutions, benefits, programs, funding for science, and soooooo much more.
