More than your landmp3
This land is more than your land or mine
It’s done fine on its own for several billion years
It’s given life to us all and someday when we die
It will be made from you and me

This is a song that works as a counter-melody duet with “This Land is Your Land.” With these lyrics, it’s a nice song to have in your public singing back pocket. And it’s fun to sing.
I didn’t write the melody, and I don’t know who did; I heard it back in the 80s with a different set of words.
Note: the pdf sheet music is a photocopy from an out of print book, Music of the Land, and also includes some new sustainable agriculture verses for “This Land Is Your Land.”
