| [00:05.22] |
I'll never swim Ker River again. |
| [00:09.28] |
It was there that I met her. |
| [00:13.09] |
It was there that I lost my best friend. |
| [00:19.30] |
And now I live in the mountains. |
| [00:22.68] |
I drifted up here with the wind. |
| [00:29.16] |
And I may drown in still water, |
| [00:32.03] |
But I'll never swim Kern River again. |
| [00:39.32] |
I grew up in an oil town, |
| [00:42.41] |
But my gusher never came in. |
| [00:47.16] |
|
| [00:49.28] |
And the river was a boundary |
| [00:51.65] |
Where my darlin' and I use to swim. |
| [00:59.49] |
One night in the moonlight |
| [01:02.06] |
The swiftness swept her live away. |
| [01:09.93] |
And now I live on Lake Shasta and |
| [01:12.18] |
Lake Shasta is where I will stay. |
| [01:19.18] |
There's the South San Joaquin, |
| [01:21.87] |
Where the seeds of the dust bowl are found. |
| [01:27.31] |
|
| [01:28.87] |
And there's a place called Mount Whitney |
| [01:32.00] |
From where the mighty Kern River comes down. |
| [01:34.87] |
|
| [01:39.25] |
Well, it's not deep nor wide, |
| [01:40.28] |
|
| [01:41.78] |
But it's a mean piece of water my friend. |
| [01:48.22] |
|
| [01:49.24] |
And I may cross on the highway, |
| [01:51.32] |
|
| [01:51.95] |
But I'll never swim Kern River again. |
| [01:55.58] |
|
| [01:59.55] |
I'll never swim Kern River again. |
| [02:04.55] |
It was there I first met her. |
| [02:08.17] |
It was there that I lost my best friend. |
| [02:11.55] |
|
| [02:14.49] |
And now I live in the mountains. |
| [02:17.68] |
I drifted up here with the wind. |
| [02:21.29] |
|
| [02:24.62] |
And I may drown in still water, |
| [02:27.42] |
But I'll never swim Kern River again. |
| [02:30.55] |
|
| [03:13.47] |
I'll never swim Kern River again. |
| [03:17.28] |
|
| [03:19.53] |
It was there I first met her. |
| [03:22.34] |
It was there that I lost my best friend. |
| [03:27.35] |
|
| [03:28.47] |
And now I live in the mountains. |
| [03:31.28] |
I drifted up here with the wind. |
| [03:34.85] |
|
| [03:38.22] |
And I may cross on the highway, |
| [03:40.53] |
|
| [03:41.53] |
But I'll never swim Kern River again. |
