Post #6 This Town is our Town Song May 2011

For the May 19th, 2011 Garwood Seniors Club meeting, the club sang this song. Gene even knew it on his harmonica.

A tribute to Our Town from the Garwood Senior’s Club


This Town is our Town

Sung to the tune of “This Land is your Land” – music by Woody Guthrie
Lyrics by Bruce Paterson, Garwood, NJ 4/ 21 /11

This Garwood’s your town; This Garwood’s my town
From Unami’s dogwoods to the Hartman playground
To the boro’s byways, and to the Gar- wood brook;
This town is made for you and me.


As I was walking the streets of Garwood
I stopped at Shop Rite and bought some good food.
A dunkin donut creates a goo-ood mood.
This town was made for you and me.

This Garwood’s your town; This Garwood’s my town
From Unami’s dogwoods to the Hartman playground
To the boro’s byways, and to the Gar- wood brook;
This town is made for you and me.


While walking on Cedar, and dodging speeders
We know we’re neater and a state-wide leader.
It’s just no contest, we like our bo-ro best.
This town was made for you and me.

This Garwood’s your town; This Garwood’s my town
From Unami’s dogwoods to the Hartman playground
To the boro’s byways, and to the Gar- wood brook;
This town is made for you and me.
(Repeat last line)
This town is made for you and me.
