If I could travel back in time I'd go to 1899 High in the Sierra Hills And ride the lumber down the Sanger flume The flume Ride the flume Ride the flume Ride the flume Watch out for that tree Forget log rides in amusement parks This one's 50 miles long Water slide with four foot sides Down the mountain, 60 miles an hour Drop through the Devil's Slide Four thousand feet in 13 miles Miss a curve, ya sail into space Hope them 2 x 4's don't break The flume Ride the flume Ride the flume Me and you Va-va-voom! Watch out for that tree Watch out for that tree! Around Around To the sides of the cliffs we cling The trestle creaks As we're swept across the canyon 100 feet below Rickety timbers - please don't fail me now Oh no... Watch out for that tree Watch out for that tree Or its pine cone sex face first For you and me.
