Fisherman lyrics

Old man Crow goes down to the river

He`s gonna fish himself a full day`s work

He`s been fishing the same old pond nearly all his life

He`s got his name engraved right there in the dirt



He`s gonna take his catch down to market

He`s gonna bring that money back home

He`s putting bread on the table

He`s doing his job



Old man`s buddy comes down to the river

He`s gonna talk himself a full day`s work

He`s been fishing for the love of the pond nearly all his life

He don`t mind at all getting down in the dirt

His wife calls at the end of the day

His child stumbles downtown to play

He`s gonna sit in the yard for awhile

He`s feeling no pain



The river bed man has seen some changes

Going from paddle boats to gasoline

He don`t mind at all about no dirty water

As long the sun comes up and those fish get cleaned



He don`t need no millionaire`s daughter

Don`t need no millionaire`s wife

He`s got that millionaire`s money

Notched in the pole of the fisherman`s life
