《Kern River》歌词

[00:00:00] Kern River - Merle Haggard

[00:00:01] I'll never swim kern river again

[00:00:08] It was there that I met her

[00:00:10] It was there that I lost my best friend

[00:00:18] Now I live in the mountains

[00:00:20] I drifted up here with the wind

[00:00:27] I may drown in still water

[00:00:30] But I'll never swim kern river again

[00:00:37] I grew up in an oil town

[00:00:39] But my gusher never came in

[00:00:47] The river was a boundary

[00:00:49] Where my darling and I used to swim

[00:00:56] One night in the moonlight

[00:00:58] The swiftness swept here life away

[00:01:05] Now I live on lake shasta and

[00:01:07] Lake shasta is where I will stay

[00:01:14] There's the south san joaquin

[00:01:16] Where the seeds of the dust bowl are found

[00:01:23] There's a place called mount whitney

[00:01:25] From where the mighty kern river comes down

[00:01:32] Well it's not deep nor wide

[00:01:35] But it's a mean piece of water my friend

[00:01:41] I may cross on the highway

[00:01:44] But I'll never swim kern river again

[00:01:51] I'll never swim kern river again

[00:01:56] It was there that I met her

[00:01:58] It was there that I lost my best friend

[00:02:05] Now I live in the mountains

[00:02:07] I drifted up here with the wind

[00:02:14] I may drown in still water

[00:02:16] But I'll never swim kern river again

[00:02:42] I'll never swim kern river again

[00:02:46] It was there that I met her

[00:02:49] It was there that I lost my best friend

[00:02:55] Now I live in the mountains

[00:02:58] I drifted up here with the wind

[00:03:05] I may cross on the highway

[00:03:07] But I'll never swim kern river again
