Gone Fishing |
| There’s your hoe out in the sun |
| Where you left a row half done |
| You claim that hoein' ain’t no fun |
| (well I can prove it) |
| You ain’t got no ambition |
| Gone fishin' by a shady wady pool |
| (Shangri-La, really la) |
| I’m wishin' I could be that kind of fool (should I twist your arm?) |
| I’d say no more work for mine |
| (welcome to the club) |
| On my door I’d hang a sign |
| Gone fishin' instead of just a-wishin' |
| Papa Bing (yeah Louis) |
| I stopped by your place a time or two lately |
| And you aren’t home either |
| Well, I’m a busy man Louis. |
| I got a lotta deals cookin' |
| I was probably tied up at the |
| studio |
| You weren’t tied up you |
| dog |
| You was just plain old… |
| Gone fishin' |
| There’s a sign upon your door (Pops, |
| don’t blab it around, will you?) |
| Gone fishin' (keep it shady, I got me a big one staked out) |
| Mmm, you ain’t workin' anymore (I don’t have to work, I got me a piece |
| of Gary) |
| Cows need milkin' in the barn (I have |
| the twins on that detail, they each |
| take a side) |
| But you just don’t give a darn (give 'em |
| four bits a cow and hand lotion) |
| You just never seem to learn (man, you |
| taught me) |
| You ain’t got no ambition (you're |
| convincin' me) |
| Gone fishin' |
| Got your hound dog by your side (that's |
| old Cindy-Lou goin' with me) |
| Gone fishin' |
| Fleas are bitin' at his hide (get away |
| from me boy, you bother me) |
| Mmm, folks won’t find us now because |
| Mister Satch and Mister Cros |
| We gone fishin' instead of just |
| a-wishin' |
