| I'm gone fishing | |
| I got me a line | |
| Nothing i do is gonna make the difference | |
| So i'm taking the time | |
| And you ain't never gonna be happy | |
| Anyhow, anyway | |
| So i'm gone fishing | |
| And i'm going today | |
| I'm gone fishing | |
| Sounds crazy i know | |
| I know nothing about fishing | |
| But just watch me go | |
| And when the time has come | |
| I will look back and see | |
| Peace on the shoreline | |
| That could have been me | |
| You can waste a whole lifetime | |
| Trying to be | |
| What you think is expected of you | |
| But you'll never be free | |
| May as well go fishing |
