Grand Coulee Dam - Woody Guthrie[00:00:00]

Well the world has seven wonders[00:00:03]

The travelers always tell[00:00:05]

Some gardens and some towers[00:00:07]

I guess you know them well[00:00:09]

But the greatest wonder is in uncle sam's fair land[00:00:12]

It's that king columbia river[00:00:16]

And the big grand coulee dam[00:00:18]

She heads up the canadian rockies[00:00:23]

Where the rippling waters glide[00:00:26]

Comes a rumbling down the canyon[00:00:28]

To meet that salty tide[00:00:30]

Of the wide pacific ocean[00:00:33]

Where the sun sets in the west[00:00:35]

And the big grand coulee country[00:00:37]

In the land I love the best[00:00:39]

In the misty crystal glitter of[00:00:44]

That wild and windward spray[00:00:46]

Men have fought the pounding waters[00:00:49]

And met a watery grave[00:00:50]

She tore their boats to splinters[00:00:55]

But she gave men dreams to dream[00:00:56]

Of the day the coulee dam would cross[00:00:59]

That wild and wasted stream[00:01:01]

Uncle sam took up the challenge in the year of 33[00:01:06]

For the farmer and the factory and all of you and me[00:01:10]

He said roll along columbia[00:01:15]

You can ramble to the sea[00:01:17]

But river while you're ramblin'[00:01:19]

You can do some work for me[00:01:21]

Now in washington and oregon[00:01:26]

You hear the factories hum[00:01:28]

Making chrome and making manganese[00:01:30]

And light aluminum[00:01:32]

And there roars a mighty furnace now[00:01:36]

To fight for uncle sam[00:01:38]

Spawned upon the king columbia[00:01:42]

By the big grand coulee dam[00:01:44]

In the misty crystal glitter of[00:01:49]

That wild and windward spray[00:01:50]

Men have fought the pounding waters[00:01:52]

And met a watery grave[00:01:54]

She tore their boats to splinters[00:01:57]

But she gave men dreams to dream[00:01:59]

Of the day the coulee dam would cross that wild[00:02:01]

And wasted stream[00:02:04]
