Fisherman (1969 Remix) [2010 Remaster]

[Verse 1]
'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

[Chorus]
Hey, hey, fisherman
Wish you luck, that's all I can
Hey, hey, fisherman
Forget the world if that's your plan

[Verse 2]
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

[Chorus]
Hey, hey, fisherman
I wish you luck, that's all I can
Hey, hey, fisherman
Forget the world if that's your plan

[Verse 3]
'Tween the nightness and the light, the line is taut, he has a bite
And he hauls a 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

[Outro]
Hey, hey, fisherman
