Pull a keeper from the surf
when I fish down South and say
YEAH THAT HOOK WENT RIGHT IN YA MOUTH
...cause I wanna be a Cowboy baby
Ridin at night cause I sleep all day
Cowboy baby
I can smell a fish from a mile away-
...You'll be out fishing at 2am and this will be stuck in your head.
No need to thank me its a gift.
still by the firelight
and purple moonlight
I hear the rusted river's call
"When he was young youd not find him doing well in school,
His mind would turn unto the waters.
Always the focus of adolescent ridicule,
He has no time for farmers daughters.
Alienated from the clique society,
A lonely boy finds peace in fishing."
"When supper time came the old cook came on deck
Saying fellows it's too rough to feed ya
At 7PM a main hatchway caved in
He said fellas it's been good to know ya."
"In a place you only dream of
Where your soul is always free
Silver stages, golden curtains
Filled my head, plain as can be
As a rainbow grew round the sun
All the stars I've love who died
Came from somewhere beyond the scene you see
These lovely people played just for me
Now if I let you see this place
Where stories all ring true
Will you let me past your face
To see what's really you"
"See the canyons broken by cloud
See the tuna fleets clearing the sea out
See the Bedouin fires at night
See the oil fields at first light
And see the bird with a leaf in her mouth
After the flood all the colors came out"
"Baby your a big blue whale
Grab the reef when all duck diving fails
I swim but I wish I've never learned
The water's too polluted with germs
I dive deep when it's ten feet overhead
Grab the reef underneath my bed
It's underneath my bed
Ain't got no quarrels with God Ain't got no time to grow old
Lord knows I'm weak
Won't somebody get me off of this reef"
worms are flowing out like endless
rain into a paper cup
they slither wildly past -
they slip away across the universe
nothins gonna chase my lure
nothins gonna chase my lure
slide the new bait on
now that realy is beautiful man
still by the firelight
and purple moonlight
I hear the rusted river's call
Well its one, two, three what are we angling for?
Don't ask me I don't give a damn
The next stop is in Chat-ham
It's five, six, seven we're casting out some pearly baits
There ain't no time to make a wish. Yippie.
We're all into fish.
it's all the same, only the spots will change
everyday, we just keep castin' awayyyyy
another place, but the winds blowin so cold
not a fish arouuunnd, the skunk's takin' hold
yeah, I'm a surfcaster
in beach buggy I ride
yeah I'm fishin'
wet or dryyyyyyyyy!!!!

"The first condition of happiness is that the connection
between man and nature shall not be broken."~~ Leo Tolstoy
All our times have come
Here but now they're gone
Seasons don't fear the Keeper
Nor do the wind, the sun or the rain (We can be like they are)
Come on baby (Don't fear the Keeper)
Baby take my plug (Don't fear the Keeper)
or take my fly (Don't fear the Keeper)
Baby, I'm a fisherman
La la la, la la
La la la, la la
Valentines day is done
Here but now they're gone
Until the Spring
It seems like an eternity
Forty fifty sixtys caught every day
Forty thousand fish will be caught every day
Another forty thousand coming every day
Come on baby (Don't fear the Keeper)
Baby take my Jig (Don't fear the Keeper)
or take my fly (Don't fear the Keeper)
Baby, I'm a fisherman
Here's one from THE Man.........
