《Grand Coulee Dam》歌词

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

[00:00:02] Written by：Trad Guthrie

[00:00:02] Well the world has seven wonders that the trav'lers always tell

[00:00:07] Some gardens and some towers I guess you know them well

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

[00:00:16] It's the big columbia river and the big grand coulee dam

[00:00:23] She heads up the canadian rockies where the rippling waters glide

[00:00:27] Comes a roaring down the canyon to meet the salty tide

[00:00:33] Of the wide pacific ocean where the sun sets in the west

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

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

[00:00:44] In the misty crystal

[00:00:45] Glitter of that wild and wind ward spray

[00:00:48] Men have fought the pounding waters and met a watery grave

[00:00:54] Well she tore their boats to splinters but she gave men

[00:00:57] Dreams to dream

[00:00:58] Of the day the coulee dam would 'cross

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

[00:01:05] Uncle sam took up the challenge in the year of 'thrity three

[00:01:09] For the farmer and the factory and all of you and me

[00:01:14] He said roll along columbia you can ramble to the sea

[00:01:18] But river while you're rambling you can do some work for me

[00:01:25] Now in Washington and oregon you can hear the factories hum

[00:01:29] Making chrome and making manganese and light aluminum

[00:01:35] And there roars the flying fortress now to fight for uncle sam

[00:01:41] Spawned upon the king columbia by the big grand coulee dam

[00:01:48] In the misty crystal

[00:01:49] Glitter of that wild and wind ward spray

[00:01:51] Men have fought the pounding waters and met a watery grave

[00:01:56] Well she tore their boats to splinters

[00:01:58] But she gave m

[00:01:59] Dreams to dream

[00:02:00] Of the day the coulee dam would 'cross

[00:02:02] That wild and wasted stream
