《Talking Fish Blues》歌词

[00:00:00] Talking Fish Blues - Woody Guthrie

[00:00:04] I went down to the fishing hole

[00:00:06] And I set down with my fishing pole

[00:00:09] Something grabbed my hook and it got my bait

[00:00:11] And it jerked me out in the middle of the lake

[00:00:14] Some jump I got sunk

[00:00:18] Baptized on credit

[00:00:22] Fishing down on the muddy bank

[00:00:24] Felt a pull and give a big yank

[00:00:26] I hauled out three old rubber boots

[00:00:28] And a Ford radiator and a Chevrolet coupe

[00:00:31] Handed it in for National Defence

[00:00:35] Setting in a boat with a bucket of beer

[00:00:37] And I hadn't caught nothing but I didn't much care

[00:00:39] I guess I was pretty well satisfied

[00:00:41] I had my little lady right by my side

[00:00:44] Taking it easy just a-waiting

[00:00:50] Worm been gone off that hook for couple hours

[00:00:56] You go fishing I'll tell you what to do

[00:00:58] You go set down by the grassy slough

[00:01:01] Take a piece of string and tie it on your pole

[00:01:03] And throw it way out in the middle of the hole

[00:01:07] Find you a good shade tree and then just set down

[00:01:11] Go to sleep forget all about it

[00:01:17] Jumped in the river and went down deep

[00:01:19] There was a hundred pound catfish lying there asleep

[00:01:22] Jumped on his back and rode him into town

[00:01:25] Saddled him up and I come to town

[00:01:28] People came running looking

[00:01:32] Dogs a-barking kids a-squalling

[00:01:38] Stagnate water's a stinking thing

[00:01:40] Slick on top and all turned green

[00:01:44] When the water goes bad the fish all run

[00:01:46] Sit all day and not catch a-one

[00:01:49] Cept old rubber boots you gots

[00:01:54] Few little suckers

[00:01:56] I waded out to a sandy bar

[00:01:58] And I caught myself a big alligator gar

[00:02:00] Brung him home across my back

[00:02:02] Tail was dragging a mile and a half

[00:02:06] Flipping and flopping

[00:02:07] Sold him for a quarter

[00:02:10] Shot craps got in jail

[00:02:19] Early one morning I took me a notion

[00:02:20] To go out a-fishing in the middle of the ocean

[00:02:23] Throwed out my line I caught me a shark

[00:02:25] I didn't get him home til way past dark

[00:02:28] He a man-eater tough customer

[00:02:33] Just wasn't quite tough enough

[00:02:38] Late last night I had me a dream

[00:02:40] I was out fishing in a whiskey stream

[00:02:43] Baited my hook with apple-jack

[00:02:46] Threw out a drink and bring a gallon back

[00:02:50] Done pretty good til the creek run dry

[00:02:55] So I gave my fish back to the finance company
