LYRICS (never aired)
Well, now, take down your fishin pole and meet me at the fishin hole,
We may not get a bite all day, but dont you rush away.
What a great place to rest your bones and mighty fine for skippin stones,
Youll feel fresh as a lemonade, a-settin in the shade.
Whether its hot, whether its cool, oh what a spot for whistlin like a fool.
What a fine day to take a stroll & wander by The fishin hole,
I cant think of a better way to pass the time o day.
Well have no need to call the roll when we get to The fishin hole,
Therell be you, me, and Old Dog Trey, to doodle time away.
If we dont hook a perch or bass, well cool our toes in dewy grass,
Or else pull up a weed to chaw, and maybe set and jaw.
Hangin around, takin our ease,
watchin that hound a-scratchin at his fleas.
Come on, take down your fishin pole and meet me at The fishin hole,
I cant think of a better way to pass the time o day.
