Subject: RE: Mudcat Worldwide Singaround Five-Year Jubilee Jun2
From,Vikki: A parody to commemorate/celebrate the fifth anniversary of the Mudcat zoom sing:

This Sing is Your Sing
To the tune of This Land is Your Land by Woodie Guthrie
(which is based on the Carter Family's When the World's on Fire)
new words by Vikki Appleton ©2 June 2025

CHORUS:
This sing is your sing
This sing is my sing
From the lovely low notes
To the way-up-high zing
From the Sierra foothills
To the Aussie harbours
This sing was made for you and me


When Covid cancelled
Our socialising
See Joe and Mudcat
To the challenge rising
They gave us singing
To lift our lockdowns
This sing was made for you and me

So every Monday
We learned what grace is
And made new friends in
Far distant places
We kept on singing
We kept on listening
Cos this sing was made for you and me

Now five years later
Across the nations
It’s time for Thank Yous
And celebrations
We are so grateful
To Joe and those who
Built this sing, just made for you and me
