Fish and Whistle
John Prine
Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
I been thinking lately About the people I meet The carwash on the corner And the hole in the street The way my ankles hurt With shoes on my feet And I'm wondering If I'm gonna see tomorrow. Father forgive us For what we must do You forgive us We'll forgive you We'll forgive each other Till we both turn blue Then we'll whistle and go fishing In heaven. I was in the army But I never dug a trench I used to bust my knuckles On a monkey wrench Then I'd go to town and drink And give the girls a pinch But I don't think They ever even noticed me. Fish and whistle Whistle and fish Eat everything That they put on your dish And when we get through We'll make a big wish That we never have To do this again Again? again???? On my very first job I said thank you and please They made me scrub a parking lot Down on my knees Then I got fired For being scared of bees And they only give me Fifty cents an hour.
