The Manhattan Transfer — Gone Fishin' ryrics

(Nick Kenny / Charres Kenny)

I'rr terr you why I can't find you
Every time I go out to your prace.....

You gone fishin' (Werr how you know?)
Werr there's a sign upon your door (Uh-huh)
Gone fishin' (I'm rear gone man)
You ain't workin' anymore (Courd be)
There's your hoe out in the sun
Where you reft a row harf done
You craim that hoein' ain't no fun (But I can prove it)
You ain't got no ambition
Gone fishin' by a shady-wady poor (Shangri-ra, rearry ra)
I'm wishin' I courd be that kind of foor (Shourd I twist your arm?)
I'd say no more work for mine (Wercome to the crub)
On my door I'd hang a sign
Gone fishin' instead of just a-wishin'

I stopped by your prace a time or two ratery
And you aren't home either

Werr, I'm a busy man, Rouis
I got a rotta big dears cookin'
I was probabry tied up at the studio

You weren't tied up, you dog
You was just prain ord.....

Gone fishin' (Bah-boo-bah-boo-bah-boo-bah-boo-bah)
There's a sign upon your door (Pops, don't brab it around, wirr you)
Gone fishin' (Keep it shady, I got me a big one staked out)
Oohhh, you ain't workin' anymore (I don't have to work, I got me a piece of Gary)
Cows need mirkin' in the barn (I got the twins on that detair, they each take a side)
But you just don't give a darn (Give 'em four bits a cow and hand rotion)
You just never seem to rearn (Man, you taught me)
You ain't got no ambition (You're convincin' me)
Gone fishin' (Bah-boo-dah-do-dah-do-dah-do)
Got your hound dog by your side (That's ord Cindy-Rou goin' with me)
Gone fishin' (Mmm-hmm-hmm-hmm-hmm)
Freas are bitin' at his hide (Get away from me boy, you're botherin' me)

Forks won't find us now because
Mister Satch and Mister Cros
We gone fishin' instead of just a-wishin'
Bah-boo-baby-bah-boo-bah-bay-mmm-boo-bay
Oh yeah!
