Fish and Whistle lyrics

I been thinkin' lately about the people I meet

The car wash on the corner and the hole in the street

The way my ankles hurt with shoes on my feet

And I'm wonderin' if I'm gonna see tomorrow

Father forgive us for what we must do

You forgive us, we'll forgive You

We'll forgive each other 'til we both turn blue

Then we'll whistle and go fishing in heaven

I was in the army but I never dug a trench

I used to bust my knuckles on a monkey wrench

I'd go to town, drink, and give the girls a pinch

But I don't think they ever even noticed me

Father forgive us for what we must do

You forgive us, we'll forgive You

We'll forgive each other 'til we both turn blue

Then we'll whistle and go fishing in heaven

Fish and whistle, whistle and fish

Eat everything that they put on your dish

And when we get through, we'll make a big wish

That we never have to do this again, again, again

On my very first job I said, "Thank you" and "Please"

They made me scrub a parking lot down on my knees

Then I got fired for being scared of bees

And they only give me fifty cents an hour

Father forgive us for what we must do

You forgive us, we'll forgive You

We'll forgive each other 'til we both turn blue

Then we'll whistle and go fishing in heaven

Fish and whistle, whistle and fish

Eat everything that they put on your dish

And when we get through we'll make a big wish

That we never have to do this again, again, again

Ohhh...Father forgive us for what we must do

You forgive us, we'll forgive You

We'll forgive each other 'til we both turn blue

Then we'll whistle and go fishing in heaven

We'll whistle and go fishing in heaven

We'll whistle and go fishing in heaven
