Songs:Gone Fishin' (83308)

Lyrics

I was drivin' California, goin' 51 in my Chevrolet.
I had the top down and it was a good day,
Nothing that I know was gonna get in my way.
I took a right turn at the wrong place,
And before you know it there's a gun in my face sayin',
"Hey there mister what you doin here?"
I told him what was up and I was into the clear.

He said, "Where you goin', what you doin', what you need?"
I tell you that cat had everything.
He said, "Do you wanna go up, do you wanna go down?
Do you need something that will spin you around?
Do you need a good buzz for a short time?
If you got a couple days, I could blow your mind.
Just put up a sign on your head that says,
"Gone fishin', gone fishin, down at the fishin' hole"

Well, I obliged I had time to kill,
Money to spend and good times to feel.
So I had one of these, one of that, and one of those,
Before you know it I could not feel my toes.
I went flyin' high, I came crashing down,
Spun out of my head like a circus (Dell'Arte) clown,
But then I woke up in one of the strangest places,
You should have seen the look on their melting faces,
Seeing traces and traces and traces and traces,
Gone fishin' down at the fishin' hole.

I got back into my car and sped on down the street,
But in my head was a symphony,
Of little drips and a swish, a kerplunk,
I pulled to the side because I thought I was drunk.
I said, "What the hells goin' on with me?"
I looked into the mirror and there was a guy with a sheet
Of paper on his head and I read what it said,
A little yellow note with the words that read,
I'm sure of it, it said,
"Gone fishin, gone fishin' down at the fishin' hole"
