Talking Fishing Blues

Talking Fish Blues - Woody Guthrie[00:00:00]

I went down to the fishing hole[00:00:04]

And I set down with my fishing pole[00:00:06]

Something grabbed my hook and it got my bait[00:00:09]

And it jerked me out in the middle of the lake[00:00:11]

Some jump I got sunk[00:00:14]

Baptized on credit[00:00:18]

Fishing down on the muddy bank[00:00:22]

Felt a pull and give a big yank[00:00:24]

I hauled out three old rubber boots[00:00:26]

And a Ford radiator and a Chevrolet coupe[00:00:28]

Handed it in for National Defence[00:00:31]

Setting in a boat with a bucket of beer[00:00:35]

And I hadn't caught nothing but I didn't much care[00:00:37]

I guess I was pretty well satisfied[00:00:39]

I had my little lady right by my side[00:00:41]

Taking it easy just a-waiting[00:00:44]

Worm been gone off that hook for couple hours[00:00:50]

You go fishing I'll tell you what to do[00:00:56]

You go set down by the grassy slough[00:00:58]

Take a piece of string and tie it on your pole[00:01:01]

And throw it way out in the middle of the hole[00:01:03]

Find you a good shade tree and then just set down[00:01:07]

Go to sleep forget all about it[00:01:11]

Jumped in the river and went down deep[00:01:17]

There was a hundred pound catfish lying there asleep[00:01:19]

Jumped on his back and rode him into town[00:01:22]

Saddled him up and I come to town[00:01:25]

People came running looking[00:01:28]

Dogs a-barking kids a-squalling[00:01:32]

Stagnate water's a stinking thing[00:01:38]

Slick on top and all turned green[00:01:40]

When the water goes bad the fish all run[00:01:44]

Sit all day and not catch a-one[00:01:46]

Cept old rubber boots you gots[00:01:49]

Few little suckers[00:01:54]

I waded out to a sandy bar[00:01:56]

And I caught myself a big alligator gar[00:01:58]

Brung him home across my back[00:02:00]

Tail was dragging a mile and a half[00:02:02]

Flipping and flopping[00:02:06]

Sold him for a quarter[00:02:07]

Shot craps got in jail[00:02:10]

Early one morning I took me a notion[00:02:19]

To go out a-fishing in the middle of the ocean[00:02:20]

Throwed out my line I caught me a shark[00:02:23]

I didn't get him home til way past dark[00:02:25]

He a man-eater tough customer[00:02:28]

Just wasn't quite tough enough[00:02:33]

Late last night I had me a dream[00:02:38]

I was out fishing in a whiskey stream[00:02:40]

Baited my hook with apple-jack[00:02:43]

Threw out a drink and bring a gallon back[00:02:46]

Done pretty good til the creek run dry[00:02:50]

So I gave my fish back to the finance company[00:02:55]
