Intro I been thinking lately about the people I meet The carwash on the corner and the hole in the street The way my ankles hurt with shoes on my feet And I'm wondering if I'm gonna see tom orrow Father forgive us for what we must do You forgive us we'll forget you We'll forgive each other till we both turn blue Then we'll whistle and go fishing in Heaven Instrumental I was in the army but I never dug a trench I used to bust my knuckles on a monkey wrench Then I'd go to town and drink and give the girls a pinch But I don't think they ever even noticed me (Repeat Chorus) Fish and whistle Whistle and fish Eat every thing 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 and hour Repeat Chorus Instrumental Fish and whistle Whistle and fish Eat every thing 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??? (Repeat Chorus) Ending We'll whistle and go fishing in Heaven We'll whistle and go fishing in Heaven (Repeat and fade)
