I guess you know them well

Is in Uncle Sam's fair land

It's the big Columbia River

And the big Grand Coulee Dam

She heads up the Canadian Rockies

Where the rippling waters glide

Comes a-roaring down the canyon

For to meet that salty tide

Of the big Pacific Ocean

Where the sun sinks in the west

In the big Grand Coulee country

In the land I love the best

In the misty crystal glitter

Of the wild and windward spray

Men have fought the pounding waters

And met a watery grave

Why, she tore their boats to splinters

But she gave men dreams to dream

Of the day the Coulee Dam

You can roll down to the sea

But river, while you're rambling

You can do some work for me."
