Gone Fishin'

You gone fishin' there's a sign upon your door

Gone fishin' you ain't workin' anymore

There's a hoe out in the sun

Where you left the row half done

You claim that hoe and ain't no fun

But you ain't got no ambition

Gone fishin' by a shady wady pool

I'm wishin' I could be that kind of fool

I'd say no more work for mine

On a door I'd hang a sign

Gone fishin' instead of just a wishin'

You've gone fishin' there's a sign upon your door

Gone fishin' you ain't workin' anymore

Cows need milkin' in the barn but you just don't give a darn

You just never seem to learn you ain't got no ambition

Gone fishin' there's your hound dog by your side

Gone fishin' fleas are bitin' at his side

Folks just can't find you here

'Cause old Alan Clinton

Gone fishin' instead of just a wishin'

You've gone fishin'

You don't worry about no waters

Gone fishin' you don't bother with the chores

There's your hoe out in the sun

Where you left a row half done

You claim that hoein' ain't no fun

You ain't got no ambition

Gone fishin'

I would peace has never died

All the word was by my side

Folks just can't find me your in

'Cause old Alan Clinton

Gone fishin' instead of just a wishin'
