[Verse 1]
Floatin' down the Kern River
Nothing up but the sun
Hanging onto a floating cooler
Filled with reds for everyone
Ooh, mm
Ooh, mm

[Refrain]
And I'm thinking everyday
Hoping I can stay this young

[Verse 2]
Floatin' down the Kern River
Current picks up around the bend
Keepin' cool with the cool water
Don't want this river to ever end
Ooh, mm
Ooh, mm

[Refrain]
And I'm thinkin' everyday
Hopin' I can stay this young

[Outro]
But even I can see
Someday I'm gonna be
Getting old, getting old
Getting old, getting old
