If I Could

If I could make my living going fishing

Then I would make my living with a line and pole

Put food on the table, pay the money to the landlord

Buy some working clothes

'Cause I ain't making money going fishing

Like I'm paid in a factory

If I could pay all these bills with my guitar

Then I would pay these bills with some rock 'n' roll

Put food on the table, pay the money to the landlord

Buy some working clothes

'Cause I ain't making money going fishing

Like I'm paid in a factory

Well, if I could

(If I could)

Then I would

(Then I would)

Make money doing something that I love

I'd thank my lucky stars above

If I could just get by, loving you dear

Then I would just get by making love to you

Put food on the table, pay the money to the landlord

Buy some working clothes

'Cause I ain't making money going fishing

Like I'm paid in a factory

Play that guitar

Well, if I could

(If I could)

Then I would

(Then I would)

Make money doing something that I love

I'd thank my lucky stars above

If I could just get by, loving you dear

Then I would just get by making love to you

Put food on the table, pay the money to the landlord

Buy some working clothes

'Cause I ain't making money going fishing

Like I'm paid in a factory

Come on, y'all

Well, if I could

(If I could)

Then I would

(Then I would)

Make money doing something that I love

I'd thank my lucky stars above

If I could just get by, loving you dear

Then I would just get by making love to you

Put food on the table, pay the money to the landlord

Buy some working clothes

'Cause I ain't making money going fishing

Like I'm paid in a factory

Put food on the table, pay the money to the landlord

Buy some working clothes

'Cause I ain't making money going fishing

Like I'm paid in a factory
