From the album In Another Life
Fishin' for bluegills Off the dock Coffee can And a dime store rod Tomorrow we'll go out In the boat at dawn To the deep water where the big fish run Up at Fishtrap Lake,Fishtrap Lake Swimmin' with my brothers My sister too Swim all day Til our lips turn blue Get out now Before you get a cramp Just one more time Out to the raft Up at Fishtrap Lake,Fishtrap Lake Birch and maple Spruce and pine Bend in the winds Of summertime Old black bear And the fat raccoon Will feel the sting Of winter soon Up to the fish house In the lantern light Fish scales, fish guts Sharp, sharp knife Hot fat, corn meal In the frying pan Sit down at the table Feel like a man Up at Fishtrap Lake,Fishtrap Lake Go for a ride Watch out for deer Dad stops at the tavern Goes in for a beer I stay outside With the keys to the car The radio And the northern stars Up at Fishtrap Lake,Fishtrap Lake
