This River Is My River, This River Is Your River

— ECHO Staff / Wednesday, August 1, 2007

The song sung to the tune of THIS LAND IS YOUR LAND, THIS LAND IS MY LAND.....

Chorus:
This river is my river
This river is your river
From the top of the canyon
Down to the Salmon
It's Wild and Scenic
So it's protected.
This river is here for you and me.

While we go boating
The sweep is floating
Guides set our tents up
Wow! what a setup.
They cook our dinners
Meals are always winners
This river is here for you and me.

CHORUS

This trip has young kids
This trip has old kids
The valley's golden
The mountain's awesome
The hot springs roast us
Our Zach, we toast him
This river is here for you and me

CHORUS

The rock's on the right side
Jerry goes to the left side
On a rock, go high side!
Jerry goes low side.
Disaster looms ahead,
ECHO guides are there instead.
This river is made for you and me.

CHORUS

Wrens on the river
Music surrounds us
And at the campsite
We get the real treat.
Laurie and Tom have come
To lead us all is song
This river is here for you and me.

This river is my river
This river is your river
From the top of the canyon
Down to the Salmon
It's Wild and Scenic
So it's protected.
This river is here for you and me.

by Emily Harris, a guest on the July 23, 2007 "Bluegrass on Whitewater" trip.
