Roll On Columbia - Woody Guthrie/Cisco Houston
Written by：Guthrie
Green Douglas for were the waters cut through
Down her wild mountains and canyons she flew
Canadian northwest to the ocean so blue
It's roll on Columbia roll on
Roll on Columbia roll on
Roll on Columbia roll on
Your power is turning our darkness to dawn
Roll on Columbia roll on
Other great rivers add power to you
Yakima Snake and the Klickitat too
Sandy Willamette and Hood River too
Roll on Columbia roll on
It's there on your bank that we fought many a fight
Sheridan's boys in the blockhouse that night
They saw us in death but never in flight
Roll on Columbia roll on
Roll on Columbia roll on
Roll on Columbia roll on
Your power is turning our darkness to dawn
Roll on Columbia roll on
Our loved ones we lost
There at colds little store
By fireball and riffle a dozen there more
We won the glairdy and soldiers she bore
Roll on Columbia roll on
Remember the trial when the battle is won
The wild Indian warrior to the pole tender gone
We hung ever Indian with smoke in his gun
Roll on Columbia roll on
Year after year we had
Hidious trials fightin' the rapids and cascades
And downs
An Indians rest peaceful on a
Mamaloo style
Roll on Columbia roll on
Roll on Columbia roll on
Roll on Columbia roll on
Your power is turning our darkness to dawn
Roll on Columbia roll on
At Bonneville now there are ships in the locks
The waters have risen and drown it the rocks
Shiploads of plenty will steam in the docks
Roll on Columbia roll on
On up the river is grand through the dam
The mightiest thing ever built by a man
To run great factories
For all up the strength
It's roll on Columbia roll on
Roll on Columbia roll on
Roll on Columbia roll on
Your power is turning our darkness to dawn
Roll on Columbia roll on
