Thread Name: Lyr Req: Talking Kinzua Dam
Subject: Talking Kinzua Dam
My friend Professor Mike Bell is in search of the lyrics to the talking blues (I think) called Talking Kinzua Dam. I DID a DT search, and found that the Kinzua dam in mentioned in Buffie Ste Marie's "Now that the Buffalo's gone" -- but that's not what we're looking for, although it seems to be protesting the same event. The last verse goes like this:

So bring the drinks and bring the ham
Let's go to Lake Perfidy on the Kinzua Dam
On the Seneca's grave we'll sing and dance
Let's have our fun -- they had their chance.

Does anyone know the song, lyrics and/or author? Thanks.
