Grand Coulee Dam

歌曲歌詞

Well the world has seven wonders

The travelers always tell

Some gardens and some towers

I guess you know them well

But the greatest wonder is in Uncle Sam's fair land

It's that King Columbia River

And the big Grand Coulee Dam

She heads up the Canadian Rockies

Where the rippling waters glide

Comes a-rumbling down the canyon

To meet that salty tide

Of the wide Pacific Ocean

Where the sun sets in the west

And the big Grand Coulee country

In the land I love the best

In the misty crystal glitter of

That wild and windward spray

Men have fought the pounding waters

And met a watery grave

She tore their boats to splinters

But she gave men dreams to dream

Of the day the Coulee Dam would cross

That wild and wasted stream

Uncle Sam took up the challenge in the year of '33

For the farmer and the factory and all of you and me

He said Roll along Columbia

You can ramble to the sea

But river while you're ramblin'

You can do some work for me

Now in Washington and Oregon

You hear the factories hum

Making chrome and making manganese

And light aluminum

And there roars a mighty furnace now
