I'm A Going Fishing (Traditional)

Also known as the "Fishing Blues" this is an old old song about sex . . . and fishing. Skip a minute and a half into the video to avoid hearing me speak. Enjoy.

Chords and Lyrics: D
I WALKED DOWN THE HILL ABOUT TWELVE OCLOCK
G D
I SAT RIGHT DOWN ON A GREAT BIG ROCK G D
I LOOKED DOWN IN THE WATER AND BLESS MY SOUL E7 A7
I SEEN A GREAT BIG CATFISH JUMP IN THAT HOLE


CHORUS- - -
D
IM A-GOIN FISHIN, CAUSE EVERYBODYS FISHIN G D
IM A-GOIN FISHIN TOO

YOU CAN BET YOUR LIFE THAT YOUR LOVIN WIFE E7 A7
MIGHT CATCH MORE FISH THAN YOU
D
ANY FISHLL BITE IF YOU GOT GOOD BAIT G
AND HERES A LITTLE SOMETHIN THAT ID LIKE TO RELATE D
WHEN ITS TIME TO BITE, LORD, THE FISH DONT WAIT E7 G
SO IM A-GOIN FISHIN, CAUSE EVERYBODYS FISHIN A7 D
AND IM A-GOIN FISHIN TOO


I went to the store and I took a look
Got a pole and some line and a triple hook
Then an old man smiled as he said to me
Son, catch a big catfish for me.

- - -CHORUS- - -

I leaned right back against an old dead tree
Then a big old bass took a look at me
He took my bait when I throwed my line
When I got him to the bank, Lord, he sure looked fine

- - -CHORUS- - -

You said you would give us the chords. Have been looking for the chords forever. I enjoyed your music! I could probably watch you over and over to catch the chords, but if you could post them that would be great...

@nursnlern Dude, look in the info panel on the right. There are right there.

I consider this a meme for : Euler diagram showing A is a subset of B and conversely B is a superset of A

A is a subset of (or is included in) B, denoted by A ⊆ B , or equivalently

B is a superset of (or includes) A, denoted by B ⊇A. THE HOOK AND THE POLE
