Henry Thomas - Fishing Blues lyrics

rate me

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 loving wife

Can catch more fish than you

Any fish bite if you've got good bait

Here's a little something 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 swimming 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 loving wife

Catch more fish than you

Any fish bite, got good bait

Here's a little something 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 loving wife

Can catch more fish than you

Any fish bite, if you've got good bait

Here's a little something 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
