lyrics
I left my love alone in the Shuswap valley Should’ve known, never let her get too far from me But now she’s gone, and I’m forgiven All this time, I thought it was my fault They’re tearin’ her down in the mountains and the rivers Those rattlesnakes won’t stop ‘til she’s bare Tolko’s taken the best of silver hills Never mind all the folks that’s livin’ there When I was young I knew the warmth of her embraces I turned my back on the pleasures of her lands But I work hard from the safety of the city To keep her whole, using all my care Well they came, and they fuckin’ killed her ‘cause they’re ruthless, corporate bastards There’s no more salmon, in all the rivers The jetboat roar, echoes down the way
