I'm from Portland but we were taught this song in music class as children. So nice to hear it and see the beautiful Columbia. I live in the UK now and don't get to see it anymore. :(

Being a vegetarian I don't eat meat or fish but it makes me sad to think of all those poor salmon who can't swim home that we have blocked their path with these evil power producing goliaths . Tear out the dams , let the rivers flow free to sea.

I've always lived on the Columbia, and I can't imagine living in the middle of the country away from it.

did one of the lines say "we hung every indian with powder in his gun"?

I shed a tear passing the John Day Dam...it just happened. I'm a descendent of the people that once lived here. I think I felt their grief.

@Brennna Yeah go Portland! but i feel sorry this is a great song
-
is there a version that has lyrics like...I don't know..."Watch all the salmon die, watch all the salmon die, do you know why? It's so DAM tragic" :(

@Carex09 unfortunately yes, dams do much damage to ecosystems.

There is a really great version by Joe Mcdonald on the album THE GREATEST SONGS OF WOODY GUTHRIE, It's probably one of my top five favorite songs of all time. Woody Guthrie is my hero, he was a great american and advocate for the common men and women that made and make this country great.
