All The News That's Fit To Sing
 
Come and take a walk with me thru this green and growing
land
 
Walk thru the meadows and the mountains and the sand
 
Walk thru the valleys and the rivers and the plains
 
Walk thru the sun and walk thru the rain
 
Here is a land full of power and glory
 
Beauty that words cannot recall
 
Oh her power shall rest on the strength of her freedom
 
Her glory shall rest on us all (on us all)
 
From Colorado, Kansas, and the Carolinas too
 
Virginia and Alaska, from the old to the new
 
Texas and Ohio and the California shore
 
Tell me, who could ask for more?
 
Yet she's only as rich as the poorest of her poor
 
Only as free as the padlocked prison door
 
Only as strong as our love for this land
 
Only as tall as we stand
 
[ extra verse supplied by Sonny Ochs ]
 
But our land is still troubled by men who have to hate
 
They twist away our freedom & they twist away our fate
 
Fear is their weapon and treason is their cry
 
We can stop them if we try
