Roll On, Columbia Folk song by Woody Guthrie Green Douglas firs, where the waters cut through, Down her wild mountains and canyons she flew; Canadian Northwest to the ocean so blue; It's roll on, Columbia, roll on! Roll on, Columbia, roll on! Roll on, Columbia, roll on! Your power is turning Our darkness to dawn, So roll on, Columbia, roll on! Tom Jefferson's vision would not let him rest; An empire he saw in the Pacific Northwest; Sent Lewis and Clark and they did the rest; So roll on, Columbia, roll on! Roll on, Columbia, roll on! Roll on, Columbia, roll on! Your power is turning Our darkness to dawn, So roll on, Columbia, roll on! At Bonneville now there are ships in the locks; Waters have risen and cleared all the rocks; Shiploads of plenty will steam past the docks; It's roll on, Columbia, roll on! Roll on, Columbia, roll on! Roll on, Columbia, roll on! Your power is turning Our darkness to dawn, So roll on, Columbia, roll on!

Page vi And on up the river is the Grand Coulee Dam; The mightiest thing ever built by a man, To run the great factories and water the land; It's roll on, Columbia, roll on! Roll on, Columbia, roll on! Roll on, Columbia, roll on! Your power is turning Our darkness to dawn, So roll on, Columbia, roll on! Used by permission "Roll On, Columbia" Words by Woody Guthrie Music based on "Goodnight, Irene" by Huddie Ledbetter and John A. Lomax TRO 1936, 1957, 1963 Ludlow Music, Inc., New York, New York

Page vii Author's Note In 1941, the Bonneville Power Administration paid folksinger Woody Guthrie $266.66 to spend a month writing twenty-six songs in praise of the development of government water and power projects. The ballad "Roll On, Columbia" was one of the songs he composed. Used as background music to the twenty-minute documentary movie on the building of Grand Coulee Dam, it has been heard by millions of visitors to the site since that time, so has proved to be a real bargain as a musical score.
