Gone Fishin - Louis Armstrong



I'll tell you why I can't find you

Every time I go out to your place...



You gone fishin' (well how you know)

Well there's a sign upon your door (uh-huh)

Gone fishin' (I'm real gone man)

You ain't workin' anymore (could be)

There's your hoe out in the sun

Where you left a row half done

You claim that hoein' ain't no fun (well I can prove it)

Cows need milkin' in the barn (I have the twins on that detail, they each take a side)

But you just don't give a darn (give 'em four bits a cow and hand lotion)

You just never seem to learn (man, you taught me)

You ain't got no ambition (you're convincin' me)



Gone fishin' (bah-boo-dah-do-dah-do-dah-do)

Got your hound dog by your side (that's old Cindy-Lou goin' with me)

Gone fishin' (mmm-hmm-hmm-hmm-hmm)

Fleas are bitin' at his hide (get away from me boy, you b
