Churn Down Columbia Lyrics by Heather Alexander

2006

From the start of the end of the settler's trail (churn down Columbia)
Where the wind and the wives of the dead men wail (churn down Columbia)
Who'd have came from the east to the western sea (churn down Columbia)
All those young men and women far braver than me (churn down Columbia)
[Chorus]
Sweet white water with your froth and foam
Churn down Columbia, carry me home
Down from the desert mountains of the dead
Out to the forest green to rest my head
Churn down Columbia
These hills and mountains are hot and dry (churn down Columbia)
With the teeth of a dragon they rend the sky (churn down Columbia)
Oh, take me away from the devil's [?] (churn down Columbia)
Now I long for the green at the end of the [?] (churn down Columbia)
[Chorus]
Sweet white water with your froth and foam
Churn down Columbia, carry me home
Down from the desert mountains of the dead
Out to the forest green to rest my head
Churn down Columbia
Take me down to the cliffs where the snow streams fall (churn down Columbia)
With the canyons deep as an eldritch hall (churn down Columbia)
Where the sunset changes all the wood to gold (churn down Columbia)
And the wind's forgotten more than man has told (churn down Columbia)
[Chorus]
Oh, sweet white water with your froth and foam
Churn down Columbia, carry me home
Down from the desert mountains of the dead
Out to the forest green to rest my head
Churn down Columbia
You were made by the waters of tremendous falls (churn down Columbia)
When an ice dam broke and it carved your [?] (churn down Columbia)
Now you run with the [?] of a thousand snows (churn down Columbia)
And I hear your laughter when the gorge wind blows (churn down Columbia)
[Chorus]
Oh, sweet white water with your froth and foam
Churn down Columbia, carry me home
Down from the desert mountains of the dead
Out to the forest green to rest my head
Churn down Columbia
Tonight I'll sleep in my forest home (churn down Columbia)
And unto the sea you are left to roam (churn down Columbia)
For my heart and soul are forever [?] (churn down Columbia)
And those eastern mountains will command my [?] (churn down Columbia)
[Chorus]
Oh, sweet white water with your froth and foam
Churn down Columbia, carry me home
Down from the desert mountains of the dead
Out to the forest green to rest my head
Churn down Columbia
Churn down Columbia
Churn down Columbia
