Fisherman's Blues
Lyrics
I wish I was a fisherman
Tumblin' on the seas
Far away from dry land
And it's bitter memories
Castin' out my sweet line
With abandonment and love
No ceiling bearin' down on me
I see the starry sky above
With light in my head
With you in my arms
I wish I was the brakeman
On a hurtlin fevered train
Crashin head long into the heartland
Like a cannon in the rain
With the beatin of the sleepers
And the burning of the coal
Counting the towns crashing by
And a night that's full of soul
With light in my head
With you in my arms
With light in my head
You in my arms
And I know I will be loosened
From the bonds that hold me fast
And the chains all around me
Will fall away at last
And on that grand and fateful day
I will take thee in my hand
I will ride on a train
I will be the fisherman
With light in my head
With you in my arms
Light in my head
Oh you in my arms
Light in my head
You
With light in my head
Oh you in my arms
Light in my head
Light in my head
