Well, you work all day while you're wantin' to play

       E                        E
In the sun and the sand, with a face that's tan

           E                         E

You get a wiggly worm and then you watch him squirm

While you put him on a hook and you drop him in a brook

   E                  E
If everything's gonna turn out right

       B                E
You're gonna fry fish tonight

Well, he comes in a run, when you pick up your gun

           E                      E
And with a shell or two, and your dog and you

You gotta plant the seed, you gotta cut the weeds

        E                       E
There's many a row you know you gotta hoe

          E                       E
When it's quittin' time, and your work is through
