Lyrics
Got Fishin' On My Mind
Michael R Kelch (c) 2000
Woke up this mornin' the sun came shinin' down,
Didn't feel like workin' so I picked up the telephone
Boss man was screamin' somethin' 'bout no 'count people
That don't mean nothin' to me but I wasn't gonna let him know
chorus
I got fishin' on my mind
Gonna leave my worries behind
I got fishin' on my mind
Gonna cast my troubles on the end of my line
verse2
I asked my woman honey do you wanna go
You pack the cooler and I'll load up the fishin' poles
Stop off at the bait stand get some coffee and some crawlers
Before the sun comes up we'll be down at the fishin' hole
chorus
ride
