Paroles officielles de la chanson "Kern River"

I'll never swim kern river again
It was there that i met her it was there 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 boundry where my darling 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
South san joaquin where the seeds of the dustbowl 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
