Subject: RE: PermaThread™ Unanswered Requests
Can't find the lyrics to the other verses to Woody Guthrie's "Over the Waterfall". First verse and chorus are something like this:
1st verse: on the oregon idaho border
you can find a great tricklin stream
some call her old hell's canyon
but to me she's a heavenly dream
chorus: come a rika tika tinka tinka bubblin on
don't ask what a river is for
come a rika tika tinka tinka bubblin on
let's ask for a billion more
