Out in California there's an old pine tree
They call Methuselah down in Inyo county
It's been standing longer than the dawn of man
So folks you better see it while you can
Out in Montana where the rocks meet the ice
There's glaciers that have cut a big ol' slice of paradise
But this world's heating faster than a frying pan
So folks, you better see it while you can
From the Great Smoky Mountains from the heart of Shenandoah
To the wide open plain Yellowstone buffalo
There's a beauty in this world that some don't understand
So folks you better see it while you can
All across this land there's vast wilderness
A destiny that's not yet been manifest
There's still a sanctuary untouched by human hands
So folks you better see it while you can
From the Great Smoky Mountains from the heart of Shenandoah
To the wide open plain Yellowstone buffalo
There's a beauty in this world that some don't understand
So folks you better see it while you can
When short sighted men, in all of their greed
They take more than they need
They auction off the holler
Just to make a dollar
Every single acre
Of our lovely mother nature
They clearcut the forest
Lie and say that its good for us
They'll mine and they'll drill
And they never get their fill
And leave nothing for our kids
Sell it off to the highest bids
Yes, this great complexity
May be marred eternally
By the rich and the few
Who want to steal it from me and you
Mr Roosevelt, you was right all along
If we ain't careful now, soon it will all be gone
And if we can't come together now and take a stand
Then folks you better see it while you can
From the Great Smoky Mountains from the heart of Shenandoah
To the wide open plain Yellowstone buffalo
There's a beauty in this world that some don't understand
So folks you better see it while you can
And if there's still a place high on main street
Where every equal voice can speak for what they believe
Without them putting those tight shackles on your hands
Then folks you better see it while you can
From the peaks of Denali to the Gulf of Mexico
From Acadia, Maine to Arizona's Saguaro
There's a beauty in this world that some don't understand
So folks you better see it while you can
This land is your land this land is my land
From California to the New York Island
From The Redwood Forest to the Gulf Stream Waters
Folks you better see it while you can
