Mike Aiken - Take The Boy Fishin' lyrics
Your rating:
She was walking down the dock with her favorite new toy To the rest of the world I was just a boy With holes in my jeans and dirty long hair It was time to meet her Daddy and man I was scared Of that “Salty Old Dog” and that look in his eyes That said, stay away from the love of my life He climbed down off the boat and pulled me aside said, What do you say we go fishin' Just you and me You know a whole lot can happen When you're out there at sea You might calm the deep water Or make the sea roar You can ride back in the Captain's seat Or swim back to shore Well he reached out and gave me a slap on the back Threw back his head and had a good laugh Just as the smile disappeared from his face He pulled out his knife started cutting some bait Through the awkward silenc an dthe howling of the wind I heard, what'd cha sasy your name was again And when it comes to my daughter, just whado you intend? What do you say we go fishin' Just you and me You know a whole lot can happen When you're out there at sea You might calm the deep water Or make the sea roar You can ride back in the Captain's seat Or swim back to shore You see boy I'm the only one her “Old Man' didn't chase away And when those twin diesels roared I hopped on board And lived to tell about it to this day What do you say we go fishin' Just you and me You know a whole lot can happen When you're out there at sea You might calm the deep water Or make the sea roar You can ride back in the Captain's seat Or swim back to shore
