There's a sign upon your door
Gone fishin'
You ain't workin' anymore
There's your hoe
out in the sun
out in the sun
Where you left a row
half done
half done
You claim that
hoein' ain't no fun
hoein' ain't no fun
You ain't got no ambition
Gone fishin' by a
shady wady pool
shady wady pool
I'm wishin' I could
be that kind of fool
be that kind of fool
I'd say no more work for mine
On my door I'd hang a sign
Gone fishin'
instead of just a-wishin'
instead of just a-wishin'
Gone fishin'
There's a sign
upon your door
upon your door
Gone fishin'
You ain't workin'
anymore
anymore
Cows need milkin’
in the barn
in the barn
You ain’t got no ambition
Gone fishin'
Got your hound dog
by your side
by your side
Gone fishin'
Fleas are bitin'
at his hide
at his hide
Folks won’t find us now
because
because
Mr. Satch and Mr. Croz
We gone fishin’
instead of just a-wishin’
instead of just a-wishin’

How perfect! Great photos to go with the song! I love fishing!
I don't think I've ever heard this song before, if I did...it's been forgotten. I LOVE your fishy take on the theme songs this week!!!!
This is a new song to me too. Great job.
I thoroughly enjoyed your bagpipe lesson story. I bet there are stories to be told about music lessons
Hugs to you and Lindy

I have heard this song before by Bing. They just don't make music like that anymore.
I wish I had a little cabin by the river somewhere cause I'd use that window treatment idea for sure. :)
I'm glad my "Bridge Over Troubled Water" song held such a lovely memory for you. Thanks for sharing it with me.
too funny, fishing is great fun and really like your take on the theme
applause!!!!!!
