Cuyahoga

Let's put our heads together and start a new country up

Our father's father's father tried, erased the parts he didn't like

Let's try to fill it in, bank the quarry river, swim

We knee-skinned it you and me, we knee-skinned that river red

This is where we walked, this is where we swam

Take a picture here, take a souvenir

This land is the land of ours, this river runs red over it

We knee-skinned it you and me, we knee-skinned that river red

And we gathered up our friends, bank the quarry river, swim

We knee-skinned it you and me, underneath the river bed

This is where we walked, this is where we swam

Take a picture here, take a souvenir

Cuyahoga

Cuyahoga, gone

Let's put our heads together, start a new country up,

Underneath the river bed we burned the river down.

This is where they walked, swam, hunted, danced and sang,

Take a picture here, take a souvenir

Cuyahoga

Cuyahoga, gone

Rewrite the book and rule the pages, saving face, secured in faith

Bury, burn the waste behind you

This land is the land of ours, this river runs red over it

We are not your allies, we can not defend

This is where they walked, this is where they swam

Take a picture here, take a souvenir

Cuyahoga

Cuyahoga, gone

Cuyahoga

Cuyahoga, gone.
