I Went Fishing With My Dad Lyrics

[DB]
I went fishing with my dad
He showed me how to hook the bait
He showed me how to cast the rod
He never ever mentioned God
We were in a different state

We stood there fishing side by side
I made up stories; he just smiled and smiled
We didn't catch a single fish
Which was, I think, my father's wish
I went fishing with my dad
I went fishing with my dad
The sun grew shorter; shorter still
The few words we had spoken ceased
As time kept on I lost my will
To live
Fatigue increased

Hey, Dad, too bad we caught no trout
He said, "I hadn't noticed, son"
You hadn't noticed, Dad, how come?
He said, "Because I was having too much fun"

[ALL]
Really, really, really, Dad?

[DB]
Yes, we were having too much fun

[ALL]
Really, really, really, Dad?

[DB]
I was listening to you chatter
And it really didn't matter

[COMPANY]
Ooh...

[DB]
What we caught
And what we didn't
'Cause at least my kid is interested
In what his old man has to say

[ALL]
What a perfect way

[DB]
To spend a

[ALL]
Perfect Saturday
Saturday
Ooh woah woah woah
Ooh Ooh

[DB]
I went fishing with my son
I taught him how to hook the bait
I taught him how to cut the slack
He caught a trout, but threw it back

[OTHERS]
Hmm

[DB]
And
It
Was
Great

[OTHERS]
I went fishing with my Dad...
