During high school, 1960 to 1964, I fondly remember this song and "Louisiana Mama".

Thank you for the memories. May you and yours stay well and prosper.

Doug Kershaw wrote this song from his life growing up along the Mermentaw River. It's based upon a true story.

Great collection of photos. Helps to enjoy the song. I wonder how many singers have recorded this. I have several albums with this on it. My favorite is Dave Edmund's. version.
