Don't Go Near the Water is the debut album of American country music artist Sammy Kershaw. Released in 1991 on Mercury Records, the album produced four singles on the Billboard Hot Country Singles & Tracks (now Hot Country Songs) charts: "Cadillac Style", the title track, "Yard Sale", and "Anywhere but Here", which peaked at #3, #12, #17, and #10, respectively. Also included is "What Am I Worth", a song previously recorded by George Jones, whose style has been cited as one of Kershaw's primary influences.[1] The album itself was certified platinum in the United States for sales of one million copies.
