If I Could

>
If I could make my living going fishing
Then I would make my living
With a line and pole
Put food on the table
Pay the money to the landlord
Buy some working clothes
Cause I ain't making money going fishing
Like I'm paid at the factory

If I could pay all these bills with my guitar
Then I would pay these bills
With some rock and roll
Put food on the table
Pay the money to the landlord
Buy some working clothes
Cause I ain't making money playing guitar
Like I'm paid at the factory

If I could
Then I would
Make money doing something that I love
I'd thank my lucky stars above

If I could just get by loving you dear
Then I would just get by making love to you
Put food on the table
Pay the money to the landlord
Buy some working clothes
Cause I ain't making money making love
Like I'm paid at the factory

If I could
Then I would
Make money doing something that I love
I'd thank my lucky stars above

If I could spend my time making birdies
Then I would spend my time playing golf all day
Put food on the table
Pay the money to the landlord
Buy some working clothes
Cause I ain't making money going golfing
Like I'm paid at the factory

If I could make my living playing fiddle
Then I would make my living
Fiddling around all the day
Put food on the table
Pay the money to the landlord
Buy some working clothes
Cause I ain't making money playing fiddle
Like I'm paid at the factory

Put food on the table
Pay the money to the landlord
Buy some working clothes
Cause I ain't making money doing nothing
Like I'm paid at the factory
