'Tween the darkness and the light As the stars fade out of sight I can hear his shiny boots fall on the sand. With a basket at his side And the morning full of pride You can see him cast his line with skillful hands. Hey hey, fisherman Wish you luck, that's all I can Hey hey, fisherman Forget the world if that's your plan. As the morning turns to noon He's content to sit and croon And he lights his twisted pipe and settles down. Onward goes the time As he tries new baited line So he digs another worm up from the ground. Hey hey, fisherman Wish you luck, that's all I can Hey hey, fisherman Forget the world if that's your plan. 'Tween the nightness and the light The line is taut, he has a bite And he hauls the beauty in with skillful pride. And his patient mind is blown 'Cause the fish is overgrown It was really worth a day for such a prize. Hey hey, fisherman.
