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 to fight for
Uncle Sam,
Spawned upon the
King Columbia by the big
Grand Coulee
Dam.
