John Prine - Fish & Whistle Lyrics

Font:

Align:

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 Im wondering if Im gonna see tomorrow.

Father forgive us for what we must do

You forgive us well forgive you

Well forgive each other till we both turn blue

Then well 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 Id go to town and drink and give the girls a pinch

But I dont 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 well 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.
