[00:00.00]The Lamoille River Song - Sandy Paton/Caroline Paton
[00:07.54]They're cleaning up our river sterilizing our stream
[00:12.61]It will be the purest that you've ever seen
[00:17.10]You can run it in your bathtub even drink it too
[00:22.58]They're changing the Lamoille from dirty brown to blue
[00:31.32]She wanders down through Hardwick slides around the bend
[00:36.49]Eats away at the print shop and the cleaner's my friend
[00:41.51]Still we love her dearly even though she smells
[00:46.50]What'll we do with our sewage
[00:48.49]We've already filled our wells
[00:52.41]They're cleaning up our river sterilizing our stream
[00:57.84]It will be the purest that you've ever seen
[01:02.19]You can run it in your bathtub even drink it too
[01:07.51]They're changing the Lamoille from dirty brown to blue
[01:16.38]They dammed her up in Morrisville made a little lake
[01:21.47]Old folks sit around her their pleasure to take
[01:26.25]The trout would like to live there but the taste is much too
[01:30.16]Strong
[01:31.11]One drink of Lake Lamoille and they'd all be dead and gone
[01:37.42]They're cleaning up our river sterilizing our stream
[01:42.65]It will be the purest that you've ever seen
[01:46.88]You can run it in your bathtub even drink it too
[01:52.31]They're changing the Lamoille from dirty brown to blue
[02:01.12]There's one good thing about her she does it every spring
[02:06.33]Overflows her banks to deposit many things
[02:11.02]Upon the farmer's fields and in the maple wood
[02:16.05]Our river only needs to be better understood
[02:22.25]They're cleaning up our river sterilizing our stream
[02:27.54]It will be the purest that you've ever seen
[02:31.95]You can run it in your bathtub even drink it too
[02:37.33]They're changing the Lamoille from dirty brown to blue
