This is a song about rivers...
And a canyon, where I like to go... While I still have the time... When rivers ran blue up on the mountain And rivers ran green out on the plain When the river ran red in Glenwood Canyon It was only a matter of time... Then rivers ran gold upon the mountain And rivers ran wild out on the plain When the river ran free through Glenwood Canyon It was only a matter of time... And the miners came and they took the gold And the people staked a claim And builders came and they made a dam And the people came to play And the dozers came and they built the road And the people found a way... Through Glenwood Canyon... Now rivers run grey upon the mountain And rivers run brown out on the plain And the river runs red through Glenwood Canyon But it's only a matter of time... |
