Fishing With My Dad I saw a little barefoot boy With fishing pole in hand Walking dow a winding road Kicking at the sand He reminded me of a boy from the past Tom Sawyer, or maybe Huck Finn I wa curious as to where he was going So I followed him He knew exactly where he was going And sat beneath a spreading oak tree He said "Hi Dad, I'm Here" No, no one came with me He seemed to be talking to a voice from nowhere But soon he settled down Fished in silence for a while Then said "Bye Dad, see you tomorrow" Then took the road back to town Oh, how I envy this little boy Who goes fishing with his dad He'll never let the memory die Of the good times that thay had So I went home and got my pole And felt extremly glad As I went back to our private fishing hole To go fishing with my dad |
