[N] Henry Thomas [Ab] completely misconstrued To Our Benefit.
It was a terrible song and he just, [A]
it was [C] about a guy cheating on his wife and saying he [Ebm] was going fishing.
[Gb] Yuck, huh?
So, and he didn't get the joke [Db] and he just wrote this thing like, [Ab]
hey I'm going fishing, [B] whee!
I've never heard it, I saw the [G] sheet music.

I went down the road about 12 o'clock, I fetched a trout back and I got me a pole.
I went to the hard way and I got me a hook, fished that hook [D] right on [G] that line.
He said you're going fishing all the time, [C]
I'm going fishing [G] too.
I bet your life, your lovey and wife, [A] can catch more fish than [D] you.
[G] And he fished by the Scott Goodbait, [C] he has a little something I would like to [G] relate.
And he fished by the Scott Goodbait, I'm a [C]-going fishing, [G] yes I'm going [C] fishing, [G] I'm a-going fishing too.

Well I went down to the table about four o'clock, I spot them blue fish swimming around.
I got so hung I didn't know what to do, I'm [C] gonna catch me [D] a blue [G] fish too.
He said you're going fishing all the [C] time, I'm going fishing [G]
too.
I bet your life, your lovey and wife, [A] can catch more fish [D] than you.

yes I'm [C] going fishing, [G] I'm a [D]-going fishing [G]
too.
Well you put them in the skillet, slap on the lid, dance it [C] on the cooker [D] with some short [G] wind bread.
He said you're going fishing all the time, [C]
I'm a-going fishing [G] too.
I bet your life, your lovey and wife, [A]
