John The Fisherman(Album Version) - Primus

作曲：Les Claypool/Todd Huth/Tim Alexander/Larry LaLonde

When he was young you'd not find him doing well in school

His mind would turn unto the waters

Always the focus of adolescent ridicule

He has no time for farmers daughters

Alienated from the clique society

A lonely boy finds peace in fishing

His mother says john this is not the way lifes supposed to be

Don't you see the life that you are missing

And he says

When I grow up I want to be

One of the harvesters of the sea

I think before my days are done

I want to be a fisherman

Now years gone by we find man that rules the sea

He sets out on a dark may morning

To bring his catch back to this small community

He doesn't see the danger dawning

Four hours up oh the ocean swelled and swelled

The fog rolled in it started raining

The starboard bow oh my God were going down

The do not hear his frantic mayday

And he says

When I grow up I want to be

One of the harvesters of the sea

I think before my days are done

I want to be a fisherman

Ill live and die a fisherman

Calling john the fisherman
