Words by Dottie Burman, Music by Robin Field

It's daybreak

On a misty country lake.

I'm floatin' along in my rowboat.

Feelin' fine.

Castin' my line.

I'm

Goin' fishin'.

It's mid-day

As I dream the hours away.

I'm floatin' along in my rowboat.

Haven't caught one

Still I'm happy in the sun.

I'm

Goin' fishin'.

A friend of mine once said to me,

"You gotta keep dreamin' and wishin'

But if you want to catch your dreams

Get out there and go fishin'!"

Well, it's nightfall

Haven't had one bite at all.

I'm tired of floatin' along in this rowboat.

I'll go in to shore and then

I don't feel like comin' back again.

Then I remember

There's no guarantee

That I'll catch

Many fish,

But I gotta try or

Guaranteed I won't catch

Any fish.

So if you've got ambition

Keep on dreamin', keep on wishin'

And start goin fishin'.

Come on,

Let's go fishin'!
