You can sure hear the sorrow in his voice and the look at the dispair on his face when he sings this song I have lived on Lake Shasta and live down by Bakersfield now I have followed Merle Haggard all my life he is my hero a true one and only troubadour there will never be another hag

Kern River is the river that runs down the Southern Sierra Nevada mountains into Bakersfield, where Merle grew up. This song sounds like a true story.
