That Freedom Highway

Teach your babies this song, and have them teach their children's children. Springsteen, Seeger, and his grandson Tao Rodriguez rock Guthrie's classic for Obama, with Lincoln looking over their shoulder. They even sing the often-omitted later verses, including:

Nobody living can ever stop me,
As I go walking that freedom highway;
Nobody living can ever make me turn back,
This land was made for you and me.

"This Land is Your Land"
