lirik lagu talking fishing blues – woody guthrie
i went down to the fishing hole,
and i set down with my fishing pole;
somethin’ grabb’d my hook and it got my bait
and jerked me out in the middle of the lake.
huh it was some jump boy,
i got sunk, kinda baptized on credit.
fishin’ down on th’ muddy bank,
felt a pull an’ give a big yank,
i drug out three old rubber boots,
a ford radiator an’ a chevrolet coop
(nothin’ but junk, so i handed it in
for national defence).
settin’ in a boat with a bucket of beer,
hadn’t caught nuthin’ but didn’t much care,
i guess i was pretty well satisfied,
had my little woman right by my side
(takin’ it easy, just waitin’
worm been gone off-a that hook for a couple of hours.
i was busy).
when you go fishin’, tell y’ what to do,
go set down by the gr-ssy dew,
take a piece of string, tie it on yo’ pole,
throw it way out in th’ middle of th’ hole.
find you a good shady tree and then just set down.
(go to sleep, forget all about it
can’t catch nuthin’ here anyways.)
well i walked out to a sandy bar,
and i caught myself a big alligator gar,
drug him home across my back,
tail was dragging a mile and a half,
flippin’ an’ floppin’. i sold him for a quarter.
(shot cr-ps, got in jall.)
jumped in the river and went down deep,
there was a hundred pound cat-fish lying there asleep,
well i jumped on his back and rode him all aroun’
saddled him up and i came into town.
people came runnin’, lookin’, dogs a-barkin’
(kids a-squallin’).
early one mornin’ i took me a notion,
to go out fishin’ in the middle of the ocean,
well, throwed me a line, i got me a shark,
i didn’t get him home till way past dark.
(was he a man-eater, tough customer.
but he wasn’t quite tough enough.)
late last night i had me a dream,
i was out fishin’ in a whiskey stream,
baited my hook with apple-jack,
threw out a drink, drug a gallon back.
(done pretty good till the creek run dry.
i give the fish back to the finance company.)
