Running along. talking to itself;
Rushing past rocks, leaping down a

You can hear it louder,
AS it goes rushing by.
II you go on it. boat riding.
You will so as ii yon We're sliding
From steep, slippery plank,
Past the flowers that grow on the
bank.
Powder River. you often go dry
When the rains are not high.
You dear old Powder River,
wish you good luck, so go on for
ever.
