Fishin' Blues

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Went up on the hill about twelve o'clock.

Reached right back and got me a pole.

Went to the hardware and got me a hook.

Attached that line right on that hook.

Says you've been a-fishin' all the time.

I'm a-goin' fishin' too.

I bet your life, your lovin'wife.

Can catch more fish than you.

Any fish bite if you've got good bait.

Here's a little somethin' I would like to relate.

Any fish bite, you've got good bait.

I'm a-goin' a-fishin', yes, I'm a-goin' a-fishin',

I'm a-goin' a-fishin' too.

Looked down the river about one o'clock.

Spied this catfish swimmin' around.

I've got so hungry, didn't know what to do.

I'm gonna get me a catfish too.

Yes, you've been fishin' all the time.

I'm a-goin' a-fishin' too.

I bet your life your lovin' wife.

Catch more fish than you.

Any fish bite, got good bait.

Here's a little somethin' I would like to relate.

Any fish bite, you've got good bait.

I'm a-goin' a-fishin', yes, I'm goin' a-fishin',

I'm a-goin' a-fishin' too.

Put on your skillet, don't never mind your lead.

Mama gonna cook 'em with the short'nin' bread.

Says you been fishin' all the time.

I'm a-goin a-fishin' too.

I bet your life, your lovin' wife.

Can catch more fish than you.

Any fish bite, if you've got good bait.

Here's a little somethin' I would like to relate.

Any fish bite, you've got good bait.

I'm a-goin' a-fishin', yes, I'm goin' a-fishin',

I'm a-goin' a-fishin' too.
