When I was in elementary school, we always sang it as:

	This land is my land; this land ain't your land.
	If you don't get off, I'll blow your head off
	I've got a shotgun, and it is loaded
	This land was made for only me.

While we're on the subject of parodies, does anyone out there know
the full set of lyrics to this one (to the tune "Has Anybody Seen My Gal"):

	Five-foot nine, eyes that shine
	He was born in Palestine
	Has anybody seen my Lord?
	He's so cool, he's so fine
	Eat his bread and drink his wine
	Has anybody seen my Lord?

Thanks,
