Lyrics

[Intro] (Welcome, everybody Welcome to Hootenanny with the Highwaymen) [Chorus] Roll on, Columbia, roll on Roll on, Columbia, roll on Your power is turning our darkness to dawn So roll on, Columbia, roll on (Let's everybody sing) [Chorus] Roll on, Columbia, roll on Roll on, Columbia, roll on Your power is turning our darkness to dawn So roll on, Columbia, roll on [Verse 1] Green Douglas fir 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 (Everybody singin') [Chorus] Roll on, Columbia, roll on Roll on, Columbia, roll on Your power is turning our darkness to dawn So roll on, Columbia, roll on [Verse 2] And on up the river is 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 [Chorus] Roll on, Columbia, roll on Roll on, Columbia, roll on Your power is turning our darkness to dawn So roll on, Columbia, roll on [Verse 3] These mighty men labored by day and by night Matching their strength 'gainst the river's wild flight Through rapids and falls they won the hard fight Roll on, Columbia, roll on (Your turn now) [Chorus] Roll on, Columbia, roll on Roll on, Columbia, roll on Your power is turning our darkness to dawn So roll on, Columbia, roll on (Last chance) [Chorus] Roll on, Columbia, roll on Roll on, Columbia, roll on Your power is turning our darkness to dawn So roll on, Columbia, roll on
