FISHIN' HOLE BOOGIE (Kevin Smith) HIGH NOON (Watermelon WM1057, 1996) Up this morning at the break of dawn Threw my pole in the car, couldn't do no wrong Got halfway to the river, weather's lookin' fair Then got myself a flat and I didn't have no spare Fishin' hole boogie, I still gotta get there I grabbed my box and grabbed my pole And boogied on down to the fishin' hole I hitched a ride down to the river bank Two full hours late, with just myself to thank The water was still runnin' from last week's flood And I lost both my shoes in the Colorado mud Fishin' hole boogie, I shoulda wore some socks My car's broken down and I lost my shoes Now I'm sittin' and singin' the barefoot blues I got a worm in the water and in five minutes' time I felt somethin' pullin' and a tuggin' on my line I reeled in my line and I swear it's true All I caught all day was my own right shoe Fishin' hole boogie, I better call it quits I'm gonna walk home before it gets too dark And all I get for dinner is cedar bark |
