Walter Brennan - Houdini lyrics

Now I used to be like a lot of folks Just to seeing how much money I could make But lately, I'm spending most of my time Fishing for that old wide mouth ba** in the lake I call him Houdini, the way he disappears Just when you think he's taking your line He's been outsmarting folks Around here for years But one day, he's gonna be mine He brought a lotta fishermen Down here to our town Eager to try out a new lure They's thinking they's The best anywhere's around And going away not so sure So, with your reputation, old big mouth Fishing for you's considered Worthwhile for folk So, I ain't in no hurry to pull you out Sitting here neath this old oak So, swim Houdini Whilst I close my eyes Cause you and me's friends Now you ain't no fool And neither am I and one day I might pull you in Now, I figured out how you survive Watch the others get tempted And caught, you see You're not greedy so you're still alive Old fish, that's a lesson you've Taught to me Well, Houdini, the sun's getting low I know you like to jump in the lake So, I'll just mosey along Tomorrow, I might even use a little bait So, swim Houdini Whilst I close my eyes Cause you and me's friends Now you ain't no fool And neither am I and one day I might pull you in No, you ain't no fool And neither am I and one day I might pull you in Ha ha ha ha ha ha
