Thread Name: Name of this song? (Land of the Silver Birch)
Subject: RE: Lyr Req: What is the name of this song?
Land of the Silver Birch
* Land of the silver birch, home of the beaver, * Where still the mighty moose wanders at will.
Chorus
* Blue lake and rocky shore, I will return once more. * Boom de de boom boom, boom de de boom boom. * Boom de de boom boom, boom-m-m-m-m.
* Down in the forest, deep in the lowlands, * My heart cries out for thee, hills of the north.
* Swift as a silver fish, canoe of birch bark, * Thy mighty waterways carry me forth.
* High on a rocky ledge I'll build my wigwam, * Close by the water's edge, silent and still.
Its a popular scout song. http://www.kidslist.uc.edu/kidslist/gs/neil/nsong1_006.html
