Nobody Can Own The Rights Songtext
I work so hard with nothing to show for it

All I create is later stolen and who's got the keys unlock these iron gates

Who's making money who's dealing in hate

Fascist remix of Woody Guthrie

Twisting the truth up around our necks
This land is yours and this land is mine

What that means is nobody can own the rights

Nobody can own the rights



All the berries are rotten on their vines

And the sorrows here they're multiplying

And all the things that we want and the things we need

Simply refuse to divide



But all the history we learn is dirty and polluted
So watered down with patriotic sentiment

So what of Lowell so what of Ludlow

The stolen blue prints of a revolution

A fascist remix of Woody Guthrie

Twisting the truth up around our necks

This land is yours and this land is mine

What that means is nobody can own the rights

Nobody can own the rights



Working class women rose and organized

They plotted with the moon to change the tide

Said all things we want and the things we need

Simply refuse to divide



But the big corporations they've got lots of gold

Lots of people working for something to hold

But starvation wages are what they get

Yeah the body's hungry and the spirit's in a coma

Fascist remix of Woody Guthrie

Twisting the truth up around our necks

This land is yours and this land is mine

What that means is nobody can own the rights

Nobody can own the rights
