About This Song

About "Roll Columbia Roll" by Woody Guthrie

Woody Guthrie's 'Roll Columbia Roll' is a working river's anthem, Guthrie's voice rough as driftwood. The song churns with the current of the Columbia, a folk tribute to the waterway's power—both a celebration of progress and a wary nod to the forces that carry men along.
