Badfinger - Fisherman lyrics

rate me

Between the darkness and the light. As the stars fade out of sight I can hear his shiny boots fall on the sand With a basket at his side. And the morning full of pride You can see him cast his line with skillful hands Hey hey, fisherman. Wish you luck that's all I can Hey hey, fisherman. Forget the world if that's your plan As the morning turns to noon. He's content to sit and croon And he lights his twisted pipe and settles down Onward goes the time - As he tries new baited line So he digs another worm up from the ground Hey hey, fisherman - Wish you luck that's all I can Hey hey, fisherman - Forget the world if that's your plan T'ween the nightness and the light - The line is taut, he has a bite And he hauls the beauty in with skillful pride And his patient mind is blown.'Cause the fish is overgrown It was really worth a day for such a prize Hey hey, fisherman
