Going Fishing

I don’t mind a little time from the worries in my mind
The great storm’s gonna do what she will do
Let the wheel keep turning, let the fire do its burning
Say goodbye to the voice that's made me blue

The hurricane’s heading north and no radar knows its course
I wanna try something different than before
There’s a song dog with a grin and a beetle in the wind
So I’m gonna head out fishin’ before the storm

I live too close to the vest in the end I want no regrets
A single rose will mark my grave and that is all

I’ll put my line out to sea, see what gets caught up with me
The waves are rising higher, don’t you know
My time is closing in like an osprey on a fin
So I’m gonna head out fishin’ before the storm

There’s a loon down in the cove,
Shows no intention that he’ll move
He’ll ride the waves and he’ll enjoy the show
I’ve sat too often on the side, now I’m rising with the tide
And i’m gonna head out fishin’ before the storm

I’ll put my line out to sea, see what gets caught up with me
The waves are rising higher, don’t you know
My time is closing in like an osprey on a fin
And I’m gonna head out fishin’ before the storm

Yes I’m gettin’ in my fishin’ before the storm
