F Bb F Bb F G G7 C7
Whistle in
[verse]
F Bb F Bb F Dm G9 C7
Well now take down your fishin' pole And meet me at the fishin' hole
F Bb F Bb F G7 C7
We may not get a bite all day But don't you rush a-way
F Bb F Bb F Dm G9 C7
What a great place to rest your bones And mighty fine for skippin' stones
F Bb F Bb F G7 C7
You'll feel fresh as a lemonade A-settin' in the shade.
[bridge]
Bb F Bb F Bb F G G7 C7
Whether it's hot whether it's cool Oh what a spot for whistlin' like a fool
[verse]
F Bb F Bb F Dm G9 C7
What a fine day to take a stroll And wander by the fishin' hole
F Bb F Bb F G7 C7
I can't think of a better way To pass the time o'day
[verse]
F Bb F Bb F Dm G9 C7
We'll have no need to call the roll When we get to the fishin' hole
F Bb F Bb F G7 C7
There'll be you, me and old dog trey To doodle time a-way
[verse]
F Bb F Bb F Dm G9 C7
If we don't hook a perch or bass We'll cool our toes in the dewy grass
F Bb F Bb F G7 C7
Or else pull up a weed to chaw And maybe set and jaw
[bridge]
Bb F Bb F Bb F G G7 C7
Hangin' a-round takin' our ease Watchin' that hound a scratchin' at his fleas
[verse]
F Bb F Bb F Dm G9 C7
Come on take down your fishin' pole And meet me at the fishin' hole
F Bb F Bb F G7 C7
I can't think of a better way To pass the time o'day
[outro]
F Bb F Bb F G G7 C7
Whistle out
