Lyrics

Whoo! I wish I was a fisherman Tumblin' on the seas Far away from dry land And its bitter memories Castin' out my sweet line With abandonment and love No ceilin' bearin' down on me Except the starry sky above With light in my head You in my arms Whoo! I wish I was the brakeman On a hurtlin' fevered train Crashing a-headlong into the heartland Like a cannon in the rain With the beating of the sleepers And the burnin' of the coal Counting the towns flashing by In a night that's full of soul With light in my head You in my arms Whoo! Oh no, I will be loosened From bonds that hold me fast That the chains all hung around me Will fall away at last And on that fine and fateful day I will take me in my hands I will ride on the train I will be the fisherman With light in my head You in my arms Whoo-hoo-hoo! Whoo-hoo! Light in my head You in my arms Light in my head You Light in my head You in my arms Light in my head And the best of you Whoo-hoo! Whoo-hoo! Whoo-hoo! Whoo-hoo!
