The Cannon River 1

Part of the Musical Portraits of Northfield Project.

 

The Cannon flows flows flows

And where it goes goes goes

It matters to you and to me

The Wahpekute Dakota (Dakota, Dakota)

Indigenous to Minnesota (Minnesota, Minnesota)

Named it Inyan Bosndata (Inyan Bosndata)

That means “Standing Rock” (Standing Rock)

From Lake Tetonka (Tetonka, Tetonka)

Up to the Mississippi (Mississississississippi)

You can take a kayak trippy (a kayak trip)

Except where waterfalls block (waterfalls block)

The Cannon flows flows flows

And where it goes goes goes

It matters to you and to me
