Thanks for creating this page, but whole lyrics (even if in the public domain) are generally material more suitable for Wikisource than Wiki"quote". Not that it's impossible to quote from song lyrics: sometimes a line from a song is so widely quoted, that it may even appear in dictionaries of quotations—for example, John Lennon's: "All we are saying is give peace a chance". But I don't know of any song that is "quotable" in its entirety. In any case, you will see that we don't have individual pages for every song—such themes would be too narrow, and not allow many quotations. So if you want to post those lyrics, a more appropriate place would be Oregon, as they are about Oregon. Okay, cheers ~ DanielTom (talk) 18:48, 9 March 2015 (UTC)
