The old man he catches the fish in the morning
|
He rides the river every day
|
I sit on the bank and I holler when he passes
|
"Hey, old man, are they biting today"
|
I wake up in the morning, thinking 'bout my troubles
|
I go down to the water and they pass away
|
And when the old man comes a-floating down the river
|
"Hey, old man, are they biting today"
|
Now here we've got a thing that keeps on rolling
|
It ain't heavy, don't take it that way
|
The old man and me, we got a good thing going
|
He gets his fish and I sit all day
|
He gets his fish and I sit all day
|
