The Fisherman

By Jack Ingram

Cadd9 – X32013

G Cadd9 G Cadd9 G

Old man Crow goes down to the river

G Cadd9 G Cadd9 G

Gonna fish himself a full day’s work

G Cadd9 G Cadd9 G

Been fishing the same old pond nearly all his life

G Cadd9 G

Got his name engraved right there in the dirt

F G

Gonna take his catch down to market

F G

gonna bring that money back home

F G

He’s putting bread on the table

F C G

He’s doing his job

Old man’s buddy comes down to the river

He’s gonna talk himself a full day’s work

He’s been fishing for the love of the pond nearly all his life

He don’t mind at all getting down in the dirt

His wife calls at the end of the day

His child stumbles downtown to play

He’s gonna sit in the yard for awhile

He’s feeling no pain

Solo

The river bed man has seen some changes

Going from paddle boats to gasoline

He don’t mind at all about no dirty water

As long the sun comes up and those fish get cleaned

Don’t need no millionaire’s daughter

Don’t need no millionaire’s wife

He’s got that millionaire’s money

Notched in the pole of the fisherman’s life
