Steelhead Trout

Out in the sun, workin' on the dam, I look down at the riverbed

Swirlin', twirlin' with the current, there was a two-foot Steelhead

Rainbow shinin' through the muddy waters, t smells just like a pulp mill

It just jumped just a little and it made a ripple that drifted to the Pacific

Steelhead trout push up stream, spawning in the spring

Climb the ladder on the dam, won't stop for anything

Only death can stop the Steelhead

When I make time to spend up the river, and I wonder will it ever come back again

Salmon go to die and the headwater's high but the Steelhead come back again

At my lunch break I'll have a drink and then I'll take a swim

And I feel the minnows nip at my toes and I wonder if they'll ever come back again

Steelhead trout push up stream, spawning in the spring

Climb the ladder on the dam, won't stop for anything

Only death can stop the Steelhead

Steelhead trout push up stream, spawning in the spring

Climb the ladder on the dam, won't stop for anything

Only death can stop the--

Steelhead trout push up stream, spawning in the spring

Climb the ladder on the dam, won't stop for anything

Only death can stop the Steelhead

Only death can stop the Steelhead

Only death can stop the Steelhead
