THIS LAND OF YOURS AND MINE
(Marijohn Wilkin / Fred Burch)


Claude King - 1963


I have seen the warships on Manila Bay
Watched the sun setting on the waves
I've sailed the Seven Seas, I've crossed the Great Divide
There's nothing like this land of yours and mine

There's nothing like this land, yours and my land
>From the New York Harbour to the Frisco Bay
Up the Mississippi, cross the wide Missouri
There's nothing like this land of yours and mine

I've stood alone in Texas, I've seen the Broadway lights
Heard a lonesome freight train in the night
I've watched the tall corn grow, heard a voice that whispers low
There's nothing like this land of yours and mine

There's nothing like this land, yours and my land
>From the New York Harbour to the Frisco Bay
Up the Mississippi, cross the wide Missouri
There's nothing like this land of yours and mine
