Lyrics

GONE FISHIN?

VERSE 1
Oh back when I was young
It seemed I always had a chore
When the fish were bitin? at the fishin? hole
I?d be stuck at home all alone
While the other kids got to fish all day
I swore someday I would say

CHORUS
Guess I?ll go out fishin?
By the old north hole
And hope my world
Don?t go too far south
?Fore I get back home
From my fishin? hole
Where I?ll be gone fishin?

VERSE 2
Oh I grew up and settled down
With a wife, kids and a house
And the fish are bitin? at the fishing hole
While I?m tied down here at home
With a stack of bills and a lawn to mow
But I swear someday I will say

CHORUS
Guess I?ll go out fishin?
By the old north hole
And hope my world
Don?t go too far south
?Fore I get back home
From my fishin? hole
Where I?ll be gone fishin?

VERSE 3
Now the days roll right on by
Each day the chores stack up just as high
And the fish are bitin? at the fishin? hole
Life?s too short and I?m growing old
So when my kids say dad there?s your fishin? pole
We all get up and we say

CHORUS
Guess we?ll just go out fishin?
By the old north hole
And hope our worlds
Don?t go too far south
?Fore we get back home
From my fishin? hole
Where we?ll be gone fishin?

CHORUS
Yes we?ll just go out fishin?
By the old north hole
And hope our worlds
Don?t go too far south
?Fore we get back home
From my fishin? hole
Where we?ll be gone fishin?
