Lyrics Kern River Blues

I'm leavin' town tomorrow
Get my breakfast in the sky
Well I'm leavin' in the early mornin'
Eat my breakfast in the sky
Be a donut on a paper
Drink my coffee on the fly
'Cos I'm flyin' out on a jet plane
Gonna leave this town behind
I'm flyin' out on a jet plane
Gonna leave this town behind
They've done moved the city limits
Out by the county line
Put my head up to the window
Watch the city fade away
Put my head close to the window
Watch Oildale fade away
Now the blues back in the thirties
Just like the blues today
There used to be a river here runnin' deep and wide
Well they used to have
Kern River runnin' deep and wide
Then somebody stole the water
Another politician lied
When you closed down all the honky tonks the city died at night
When you closed down all the honky tonks the city died at night
When it hurt somebody's feelings well a wrong ain't never right
Well I'm leavin' town forever
Kiss an old boxcar goodbye
Well I'm leavin' town forever
Kiss an old boxcar goodbye
I dug my blues down in the river but the old Kern River is dry
