Where is my husband?
Where could he be?
I thought he was home
It's quarter past three!

It's early in the morning
I thought, surely he wouldn't
Be out of bed quite so soon
Oh my, he just couldn't

He must have had a dream
That woke him in the night
But where could he have gone?
Did it give him such a fright?

I'm looking I'm looking
Oh wait! There's a note!
It says, 'Gone fishin' honey
And I also took the boat'

I should have known!
He's not and early riser
It's really just like pulling teeth
None would be the wiser!

But when it comes to them darn fish
He'll rise real early for sure!
Tell me now, does anyone know
Is there any cure?

Take a very dead fish smear it on you. Go hug him and tell him that anytime he misses fishing you'll be glad to wear your new fragrance for him.

The answer is to gain an affection for fishing or to pursue your passion while he is pursuing his....James

Well there is a cure... move to the lake or shore and onto a boat... he can fish everyday off the side while you go along... or you can try shock therapy, although it has only limited success, as the avid fisherman is used to be shocked by faulty wires on the boat or truck, and the central nervous system of the avid fisherman has been determined to be rather primative....

or so they told me when I was taken in for therapy....
