Now, take down your fishin' pole And meet me at the fishin' hole We may not get a bite all day But don't you rush away What a great place to rest your bones And mighty fine for skippin' stones We feel fresh as a lemonade A sittin' in the shade Whether it's hot Whether it's cool Oh, what a spot For wishin' like a fool What a fine day to take a stroll And wander by the fishin' hole I can't think of a better way To pass the time of day (Whistling) We'll have no need to call the roll When we get to the fishin' hole They'll be you, me and old dog Trey To do the time away If we don't hook a purple bass We'll cool our toes in dewy grass Or else pull up a weed o' chaw And maybe sit and jaw Hangin' around Takin' our ease Watchin' the hound A scratchin' at his fleas Come on, take down your fishin' pole And meet me at the fishin' hole I can't think of a better way To pass the time of day
