When rivers ran blue up on the mountain
Saat sungai-sungai mendung di atas gunung
And rivers ran green out on the plain
Dan sungai-sungai meleleh di dataran
When the river ran red in Glenwood Canyon
Saat sungai merah di Glenwood Canyon
It was only a matter of time
Itu hanya masalah waktu saja

Then rivers ran gold up on the mountain
Kemudian sungai-sungai mengalir emas di atas gunung
And rivers ran wild out on the plain
Dan sungai-sungai mengalir liar di dataran
And the river ran free through Glenwood Canyon
Dan sungai itu mengalir bebas melalui Glenwood Canyon
And it was only a matter of time
Dan itu hanya masalah waktu saja

And the miners came and they took the gold and the people staked a claim
Dan para penambang itu datang dan mereka mengambil emas itu dan orang-orang mempertaruhkan sebuah klaim
And the builders came and they made a dam and the people came to play
Dan pembangun datang dan mereka membuat bendungan dan orang-orang datang untuk bermain
And the 'dozers came and they built a road and the people found a way
Dan para ‘dozer datang dan mereka membangun jalan dan orang-orang menemukan jalan
Through Glenwood Canyon
Melalui Glenwood Canyon

Now rivers run grey up on the mountain
Sekarang sungai-sungai beruban di atas gunung
And rivers brown out on the plain
Dan sungai-sungai berceceran di dataran
And the river runs red through Glenwood Canyon
Dan sungai itu membara melalui Glenwood Canyon
But it's only a matter of time
Tapi itu hanya masalah waktu saja
