Well now take down your fishin' pole And meet me down at the fishin' hole We may not get a bite all day But don't you rush away What a great place to rest your bones And mighty fine for skipping stones You'll feel fresh as a lemonade A-settin' in the shade Whether it's hot, whether it's cool Oh what a spot, for whistlin' like a fool What a fine day to take a stroll And wonder by the fishin' hole I can't think of a better way To pass the time of day We'll have no need to call the roll When we get to the fishin' hole There'll be you, me, and old dog Trey To doodle time away If we don't hook a perch or bass We'll cool our toes in dewy grass Or else pull up a weed to chaw And maybe set and jaw Hangin' around, takin' our ease Watchin' that hound a-scratchin' at his fleas Come on take down your fishin' pole And meet me at the fishin' hole I can't think of a better way To pass the time of day
