I walked down the hill about twelve a clock
|
I sat right down on a great big rock
|
I looked down the water en blessed my soul
|
I seen a great big catfish jumpin' that hole
|
|
(chorus)
|
I'm a gonna fishin 'cause everybody's fishing
|
And I'm a gonna fishing too
|
|
You bet your life That your lovin' wife
|
Might catch more fish than you
|
Any fish will bite if you got good bate
|
And here's a little something That I'd like to relate
|
And when it's time to bite, Lord, the fish won't wait
|
I'm a gonna fishin 'cause everybody's fishing
|
And I'm a gonna fishing too
|
|
I went to the store and I took a look
|
Got a pole and some line and a triple hook
|
Then an old man smiled as he said to me
|
Son, catch a big catfish for me
|
|
(chorus)
|
|
I lean right back against on old big tree
|
Then a big old bass took a look at me
|
He took my bate when I throwed my line
|
When I got him to the bank, Lord, he sure looked fine
|
|
(chorus)
|
