Oh, the world is seven wonders,
so the travelers always tell
Some gardens and some towers,
I guess you know them well
But now the greatest wonder
is in Uncle Sam's fair land
It's that keen Columbia River
and the great Grand Coulee Dam
She heads up the Canadian Rockies
where the crystal waters glide
comes a -tumblin' down the canyon
Of the wide Pacific Ocean
where the sun sets in the west
and the big grand coulee country and the land
Uncle Sam took up the challenge
in the year of thirty -three for the
He said, roll along Columbia
you can ramble to the sea
But river, while you're ramblin',
you can do some work for me
In the misty crystal glitter
of that wild windward spray
Men have fought the pounding waters,
Yes, you tore their boats to splinters,
would cross that wild and wasted stream
Now, in Washington, in Oregon,
you hear the factories hum,
And there rose a flying fortress
now to fight for Uncle Sam,
spawned upon the King Columbia
by the great Grand Coulee dam
It's up the Canadian Rockies
where the crystal waters glide
Of the wide Pacific Ocean
where the sun sets in the west
And the big Grand Coulee country and the land
