Lynyrd Skynyrd - Gone Fishin' Lyrics

The only time I'll get up early
Is to meet my mules at the fishin' hole
I want to catch the one that got away
I want to feel my pole bending in that way
Since I was a kid I've felt this way
I fell, hook, line and sinker.

Gone Fishin' Yeah

St John's River runs north not south
Smart enough to have a large mouth
If you can hook 'em, you can mount 'em, you can keep 'em around
But if they break your line they're gonna go back down

Since I was a kid I've felt this way
I fell, hook, line and sinker.

Gone Fishin' Oh

Ain't nothing like sunrise on a lake
But when the moon comes up at night
There's things out there that can take your life
You might just die of fright

But I'll be there come rain or shine
You see it's what I like to do
Only thing better than settin' a hook
is settin' my hook in you.

I fell, hook, line and sinker.
Gone Fishin' Oh Oh Yeah, Yeah, Wooo Yeah

I been everywhere, tried everything
But there ain't nothing that feels the same
When you find the right one it's a magical thing
Next thing you know it's a diamond ring

She hooked me and took my name
I fell, hook, line and sinker.

Gone Fishin' Yeah
Gone, Gone Fishin'
She Hooked Me

Gone, Gone Fishin' Yeah
Gone, Gone, Gone Fishin' Yeah

She's my baby
Well I'm gone

Gone Fishin' Yeah Yeah Oh Oh
Gone Fishin'
