Gone Fishing !
~Marge Tindal~ 1999

Out on the lake,
down by the lea,
my love and I went fishing.
All the while
with baited hooks...
we'd sit there just a'wishing,
that the old mudcat
would come swimming by
and find where we were at.

We'd reel him in
and start to grin
and laugh at our very own luck.
We'd cut him loose
and watch him vamoose
and then we'd catch him again.

That old mudcat
thought he could fight,
but he soon came to know
when it comes to baiting the hook ...
he'd just met the pro !

A fishin' we will go.
A fishin' we will go.
We'll catch a mudcat
just like that ...
and then we'll let him go.

That old mudcat met a thinker ...
he fell for it
HOOK, LINE AND SINKER !
