Gone Fishing

audio: stream

What’s it cost you darling,
What’s it cost you darling,
What’s it cost you, What’s it cost you?
Not very much.
I got no people here on my boat
Just a half jug of wine
And a net full of hope
I got no money, but I’m still afloat
Lost my luck to the wind
So I row and I row
I got this girl who waits back on the shore
She sees me row, say she don’t know what for
Ain’t got no fish when I’m at her door
But in the morning when I leave,
she’s begging for more and more
I got no people here on my boat
Just a half jug of wine
And a net full of hope
I got no money, but I’m still afloat
Lost my luck to the wind
So I row and I row
This cat and mouse game sorely must end
Catch all the fish, who’ll be left to be friends?
Back home it’s too tough I can’t cope
But in the land of fish I know someday I’ll be Pope
I got no people here on my boat
Just a half jug of wine
And a net full of hope
I got no money, but i’m still afloat
Lost my luck to the wind
So I row and I row.
What’s it cost you darling,
What’s it cost you darling,
What’s it cost you, What’s it cost you?
Not very much.
I got no people here on my boat
Just a half jug of wine
And a net full of hope
I got no money, but I’m still afloat
Lost my luck to the wind
So I row and I row
