Testo Fish and Whistle - John Prine
Testo della canzone Fish and Whistle (John Prine), tratta dall'album John Prine Live
I've been thinking lately 'bout the people I meet
The car wash on the corner and the hole in the street
The way my ankles hurt with shoes on my feet
I'm wondering if I'm gonna see tomorrow
Father forgive us for what we must do
You forgive us and we'll forgive you
We'll forgive each other 'til we both turn blue
Then we'll whistle and go fishing in heaven
I was in the army but I never dug a trench
Used to bust my knuckles on a monkey wrench
I'd go to town and drink, give the girls a pinch
I don't think they ever even noticed me
Father forgive us for what we must do
You forgive us and we'll forgive you
We'll forgive each other 'til we both turn blue
Then we'll whistle and go fishing in heaven
Fish and whistle and whistle and fish
Eat everything that they put on your dish
When we get through we'll make a big wish
That we never have to do this again, again, again
Oh, my very first job I said thank you and please
They made me scrub a parking lot down on my knees
Then I got fired for being scared of bees
They only gave me fifty cents an hour
Father forgive us for what we must do
You forgive us and we'll forgive you
We'll forgive each other 'til we both turn blue
Then we'll whistle and go fishing in heaven
Fish and whistle and whistle and fish
Eat everything that they put on your dish
When we get through we'll make a big wish
That we never have to do this again, again, again
Oh, Father forgive us for what we must do
You forgive us and we'll forgive you
We'll forgive each other 'til we both turn blue
Then we'll whistle and go fishing in heaven
We'll whistle and go fishing in heaven
We'll whistle and go fishing in heaven
