 D                                                   A       D

 Bet your life, your sweet wife, catch more fish than you.
 
 Chorus 1:
 D                      D7           
 Many fish bites if you got good bait
 G                                              
 Here's a little tip that I would like to relate
 D                                     
 Many fish bites if you got good bait ,
 
 I'm a goin' fishin', yes I'm goin' fishin'
                   A       D   
 And my baby goin' fishin' too.
 
 Verse 2:
 D                                         
 I went on down to my favorite fishin' hole
                 A          D    
 Baby, grab me a pole an' a line,
 
 Drove my pole on in, caught a nine poun' catfish
 E7                                         A    
 Now you know I brought him home for supper time.

 Verse 3:
 D                                         
 Baby brother 'bout to run me outta my mind
                   A            D    
 Sayin', "Can I go fishin' with you?"
 
 I took him on down to the fishin' hole
     E7                                A  
 Now what do you think now that he did do?
 
 Chorus 2:
 D                                         D7      
 Pulled a great big fish out the bottom of the pond
 G                                               
 Now he's laughing drunk, 'cause he was real gone
 D                                     
 Many fish bites if you got good bait ,
 
 I'm a goin' fishin', yes I'm goin' fishin'
                   A       D   
 And my baby goin' fishin' too.
 
 Verse 4:
 D                                          
 Put him in the pot, baby put him in the pan
                        A        D    
 Honey cook him till he nice an' brown
 
 Make a batch o' buttermilk, whole cakes mama
     E7                               A    
 An' chew them things an' chomp em on down.
