Title A name given to the resource Topo-lo-bampo Bay” song Description An account of the resource Written by Lon Hoding, this song encapsulates the hope and desire for a utopian land. The song’s chorus postulates Topolobampo as the “sweetest place upon the Earth’s face” which speaks to the idealization of the colony that people had in their collective imagination. Elsewhere in the song, Topolobampo is described as a “perpetual May” which is to say that the climate of this utopian paradise is neither dry nor drenched in rain. This is important because it implies that the climate and soil of this landscape would be ideal for farming and producing a sustainable production of food for the colony’s inhabitants. The reference to the “fertile soil” in the song’s second stanza solidifies this sentiment. Disillusioned with the economic system at home- an economic system which seems fraught with “schemers,” are to join together and head for the bay where these problems will cease to exist.

Text Any textual data included in the document Topolobampo Pioneer Song Sung at La Logia Lyceum It was three years ago and more, That we to Topo came And landed on its beauteous shore And camped upon the same We left our friends and homes behind And struck for weal and wore, To build new homes in foreign lands ‘Way down in Mexico Chorus: Our noble leader, Owen brave, We know that he is true, We trusted him to lead us on To homes in Mexico. We’ve worked and toiled these weary years In sunshine and in rain, We’ve suffered disappointment oft, But tried anew again. But now we see our morning star Arising in the east, We’ll take new hope and still work on And do our very best. Chorus Co-Operation is our theme And we shall win the fight ‘Gainst Competition’s selfish greed, For we are in the right. With Justice for our motto true, We win the hearts of each Who love the golden rule full well And practice what they preach. Chorus Our land is rich, our waters pure, Our air salubrious, Our climate is the best on earth, Our sunshine glorious. With mountain, plain and valleys grand And bays and rivers bright, With many a mile of waveworn coast Foaming with silvery light. Chorus With such adventures as these Why should we not succeed, If we but work in harmony And not in selfish greed. If in our workshops and our mills We work with proper skills, Our orchards, farms and gardens too, And every station fill. Chorus And when our steamships plow the seas, And railroads span the land, Then we shall reap a rich reward - A civilization grand. Then to all people we shall be A bright and shining light - A good example - a morning star To guide them in the right. Chorus And when this work for us is done And we have gone to rest, We’ll leave the work to other hands, Still hoping for the best. And may the work bravely on, Though we are hid from view We still shall make our presence felt To friends in Mexico.
