Madawaska River Songtext

Madawaska River Songtext
Follow my heart up the mighty Madawaska
That′s where I found her, that's where I lost her
Run on bone, a share pay to wah-wah
Always remember the first time I saw her
What I wouldn′t do just to hold her again
Follow that river all the way to Algonquin
Champlain came for the fur trade
And he took a good look around
Was a great green valley with a river running through
Well, it might be heaven I found
All them trees as far as you can see
Somebody opened up a sawmill
You can hear the lumberjacks with the big broad axe
All the way to the Gatineau Hills
It's fast and it flows like a fiddle tune
That's running through my mind
Over the rocks and the rapids
Along the old Peanego line
The moose and the goose and the caribou
In an empire so vast
You know they say they came all this way
Just to try and find a beaver felt hat
Follow my heart up the mighty Madawaska
That′s where I found her, that′s where I lost her
Run on bone, a share pay to wah-wah
Always remember the first time I saw her
What I wouldn't do just to hold her again
Follow that river all the way to Algonquin
On a valley farm there′s a timber barn
That's leaning to the past
In every saddle of the dovetail joints
You can still see the mark of the ass
By a swift canoe you can follow through
And take her to where she goes
Touch a paddle to the water and you′ll never forget her
Take it from someone who knows
Follow my heart up the mighty Madawaska
That's where I found her, that′s where I lost her
Run on bone, a share pay to wah-wah
Always remember the first time I saw her
What I wouldn't do just to hold her again
Follow that river all the way to Algonquin
From the log jams to the hydro dams
I wouldn't hold any regrets
They′re still drinking them down at Bytown
Up the Chateau Lafayette
Running its course down from the source
Changing over time
Only water knows where a river flows
And you′ll never touch one twice
Follow my heart up the mighty Madawaska
That's where I found her, that′s where I lost her
Run on bone, a share pay to wah-wah
Always remember the first time I saw her
What I wouldn't do just to hold her again
Follow that river all the way to Algonquin
I would follow that river all the way to Algonquin
That′s where I found her, that's where I lost her
Run on bone, a share pay to wah-wah
Always remember the first time I saw her
What I wouldn′t do just to hold her again
Follow that river all the way to Algonquin
Champlain came for the fur trade
And he took a good look around
Was a great green valley with a river running through
Well, it might be heaven I found

I would follow that river all the way to Algonquin
