Fishing wit we    D.Seitz   

DGD      DGA           DGA     DAD

 

Went fishing this morning out after dem bass

We soon in de channel with the buoys flying pass

 

Past dredging division round Mamai curve

Pass a ugly crocagaita  man, him lash me nerves

 

At last to de fishin’ hole    we did reach

And to dem fish a great big lesson we gween teach

 

I put de bait on de hook and cast next to de weeds

I waiting for de fish to strike out wit him greed

 

CHORUS

I wonda wonda wonda what de poor people doing today

While we catching fish and catching de rays

D                                            G                         D

Dems feeling all boxed up, wishing dem was free

            Bm                   G                         A              D

Dey shoulda skipped work and come fishing with we

 

Bm                                                         D

For a second I tink that nothing would bite just because

            C                                 A

But I know not to worry cuz, dem always does

 

After two hours we catch eighty three

I heard de howler monkey up in de tree

Slim drink plenty of beers, at least two or three

And now him howling back at that howler monkey

 

And I wonda wonda wonda what de poor people doing today

While we catching fish and catchin de ray

Dems home feeling box up wishing dem was free

Dey should skipped work and come fishing with we

 

Slim get a bite   And him pull up like a whip

Slims fish was gone and all him catch was some lips

 

De bait is all gone our throats feeling dry

Wind’s dying down, De Sun is leaving de sky

Time is come to leave and be on our way

We’s glad we was fishing and not working today

 

I wonda wonda wonda what de poor people doing today

While we catching fish and catching de rays

Dems feeling all boxed up, wishing dem was free

Well, Dem shoulda skipped work and come fishing with we

Dem shoulda skipped work and come fishing with we

Dem shoulda skipped work and come fishing with we
