on a misty morning walk
i met a friend we sat and talked
about a place for us
all our words rambled high and low
from the catskills down to new mexico
there's a place for us
from the coney island rides
out to the california tides
there's a place for us
under a storyteller's tree
or on a riverbank down in tennessee
there's a place for us
where people gather in the summer heat
talk and laughter float on down the street
there's a string band playing and the dancing feet
make such a peaceful sound on the hot concrete
from the town halls up in maine
to the windmills on the plains
there's a place for us
where the farmer feeds the town
and the high school band supplies the sound
there's a place for us
when our borders disappear
and the signs say you're welcome here
where empty new york city lots
become neighborhood garden plots
there's a place for us
from the rockies to the shore
when there's a land of poetry and open doors
under a sky of endless love
can be the world we're dreaming of
a place for us
where people gather at an evening fair
crazy orchestras have filled the air
at every table there's an extra chair
and a hand to shake and a plate to share
on a misty morning walk
i met a friend so we sat and talked
about a place for us
we shall we shall not be moved
we shall we shall not be moved
just like a tree planted by the water
we shall not be moved
when we sing together we shall not be moved
when we sing together we shall not be moved
just like a tree planted by the water
we shall not be moved
when we work together we shall not be moved
when we work together we shall not be moved
just like a tree planted by the water
we shall not be moved
when we're playing banjos we shall not be moved
when we're playing banjos we shall not be moved
just like a tree planted by the water
we shall not be moved
we shall we shall not be moved
we shall we shall not be moved
just like a tree planted by the water
we shall not be moved
just like a tree planted by the water
we shall not be moved
