Remember this Parody?
Out in the country, far from a highway
There is this land here, and it is my way
Don’t ever come here, or you’ll be sorry
This land was made just for me
This land is my land,it isn’t your land
I got a shotgun, and you don’t got none
If you don’t get off, I’ll blow your head off
This land was made just for me
So keep away now, don’t ruin my day now
My property’s private, you cannot buy it
Go find your own land, just be a lone man
This land was made just for me
This land is my land,it isn’t your land
I got a shotgun, and you don’t got none
If you don’t get off, I’ll blow your head off
This land was made just for me
Heh, heh, I haven’t heard that “My land” parody since I was in high school. Geez, that was forever and a day ago, when the prettiest girls, the first to wear their hair long, were the ones singing PPM tunes, “MTA”, & Kingston Trio faves. For a time I went along, following the advice that “these days, a lot of guys are joining the Revolution just to get laid.”
Then Vietnam came along and the folkies started serenading the Viet Cong & praising Che Guevara. I did a tour in Vietnam, grew up, and left all that guitar & tambourine cr@p behind.
But for what it’s worth, Arlo Guthrie isn’t the rabid commie that his father was.
