Lyrics Kern River

I'll never swim Kern River again

It was there that I met her it was there that I lost my best friend

And now I live in the mountains

I drifted up here with the wind

And I may drown in still water but I'll never swim Kern River again

I grew up in an oil town but my gusher never came in

And the river was a boundary where my darlin' and I used to swim

One night in the moonlight the swiftness swept her life away

And now I live on Lake Shasta and Lake Shasta is where I will stay

There's the South San Joaquin where the seeds of the dust bowl are found

And there's a place called

Mount Whitney

From where the mighty

Kern River comes down

Well it's not deep nor wide but it's a mean piece of water my friend

And I may cross on the highway

But I'll never swim Kern River again

I'll never swim Kern River again

It was there that I met her it was there that I lost my best friend

And now I live in the mountains

I drifted up here with the wind

And I may drown in still water but I'll never swim Kern River again

I'll never swim Kern River again

It was there that I met her it was there that I lost my best friend

And now I live in the mountains

I drifted up here with the wind

And I may cross on the highway but I'll never swim Kern River

Again
