Lyrics

Catch a Fish
Gotta catch a fish, bring it home fry it in the skillet
Gotta catch a fish, bring it home fry it
Gonna give it the lady and the baby gonna eat it
Gonna give it the lady and the baby they will eat
A in't life a wonderful thing.Oh Oh baby and the lady ate it all up
Oh Oh baby and the lady ate it all
Oh Oh they didn't leave me nothin' didn't leave nothing for me .

So... I gotta catch a fish, bring it home fry it in the skillet
Gotta catch a fish, bring it home fry it
Gonna give it the lady and the baby gonna eat it
Gonna give it the lady and the baby they will eat
A in't life a wonderful thing.Oh Oh baby and the lady ate it all up
Oh Oh baby and the lady ate it all
Oh Oh they didn't leave me nothin' didn't leave nothing for me .

Just a fun and clever song. I totally dug it. Very marketable too, no doubt! The instrumentation is excellent as I have given this one high marks. I am not easy to impress either. I think the vocal sounds great. I love the phrasing and cadence.
