As recorded by J.J.Cale (From the 1974 Album OKIE) [Intro] Am7 Em7 Am7 Em7 Am7 Em7 Am7 [Verse 1]
Am7
The old man he catches the fish in the morning

Am7
He rides the river every day

Am7
I sit on the bank and I holler when he passes

Am7
"Hey, old man, are they biting today?"
[Verse 2]
Am7
I wake up in the morning, thinking 'bout my troubles

Am7
I go down to the water and they pass away

Am7
And when the old man comes a-floating down the river

Am7
"Hey, old man, are they biting today?"
[Guitar Solo] Am7 Em7 Am7 Em7 Am7 Em7 Am7 Em7 Am7 Em7 Am7 Em7 Am7 [Verse 3]
Am7
Now here we've got a thing that keeps on rolling

Am7
It ain't heavy, don't take it that way

Am7
The old man and me, we got a good thing going

Am7
He gets his fish and I sit all day

Am7
He gets his fish and I sit all day
[Outro] Am7
