Lyrics
BLUE MARLIN DARLIN
Well fishing has been a part of my life
Most men will tell you it's hard with a wife
Some women like it and some women don't
Some will give it a try and some won't
Well I got kind of luck and found my wish
My wife gives me all her love and lord she loves to fish
She's my blue marlin darlin
Her eyes light up when a fish gets in the bait
Blue marlin darlin
Doesn't complain when we have a long wait
Blue marlin darlin
She makes sure I get breakfast in the morning
I make sure if a storm coming she gets a warning
And when a fish gets in the bait she jumps in the air
I'll climb down off the bridge make sure she gets to the chair
I love to yell down "what you got there darlin"
Just to see her smile and tell me "it's a blue marlin"
She's my blue marlin darlin
There's nothing finer you see
Blue marlin darlin
I'm lucky she fell in love with me
Blue marlin darlin
Well sometimes we just cruise the water and watch the sun set
I think she'd rather be fishing, matter fact, I'd almost bet
I could set back and say I'm too tired you know
She'd load up the boat and say we're ready to go
Now I enjoy every minute with my wife
And I tell you we're having the time of our life
Blue marlin darlin, I couldn't love you anymore than I do
Blue marlin darlin, I'll be spending the rest of my life with you
Blue marlin darlin, I love you dearly, it wasn't my only wish
Blue marlin darlin, but I wouldn't complain, it's nice you love to fish
Blue marlin darling
