歌曲名 Fish and Whistle(2020 Remaster)

歌手名 John Prine

作词：John Prine

I been thinking 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 wondering if I'm gonna see tomorrow

Father forgive us for what we must do

You forgive us and we'll forgive you

We'll forgive each other till 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

Then I'd go to town and 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 and we'll forgive you

We'll forgive each other till 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 and we'll forgive you

We'll forgive each other till 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

Father forgive us for what we must do

You forgive us and we'll forgive you

We'll forgive each other till 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
