Come on down if you get the chance
Stay awhile roll up your pants
You don't have to know how to dance
Just follow your heart and your soul
I don't lean one way or the other
I love all of my sisters and brothers
You can read me cover to cover
But all that you need to know
'Cause I don't worry
Don't get in a hurry
Ain't no reason to fight
If the fish don't bite
Don't bring me no bad news
The only thing that I ask of you
One time if you could
Whatcha know good
Sometimes life it strikes me funny
I catch all of my flies with honey
I don't stand on a pile of money
To make myself higher than you
I give thanks for the sun and the rain
Hitch my wagon to the gravy train
If this old world goes up in flames
The river's gonna flow on through
I don't worry
Don't get in a hurry
Ain't no reason to fight
If the fish don't bite
Don't bring me no bad news
The only thing that I ask of you
One time if you could
Whatcha know good
You're wastin' your time tryna make up my mind
When I know just what is right to me
So if you don't mind, I politely decline
Your invitation to this negativity
Oh
I don't worry
Don't get in a hurry
Ain't no reason to fight
If the fish don't bite
Don't bring me no bad news
The only thing that I ask of you
One time if you could
Whatcha know good
Whatcha know good
