Me and my dad outside

Sitting around watching it snow -

Listening to the cold wind blow -

It's a dark gray day -

Meant for gazing out a frosty window,

At thoughts so far away.

Sit, and enjoy the sound,

Listening to Greg Brown

Sing about ' Fishing With Bill '.......

And for just a moment of sentiment

The rest of the world is serenly still;

As if this song was meant for me

And my childhood memory,

When it seems all I had

And all I wanted

Was fishing with Bill, my dad.

It was the best blessed time,

His, and mine.

Oh to go back again

And be once more, fishing with him.......

- I thank God

For those wonderful times we had,

Out there on Houghton Lake

Just a fishin',

Me and my Dad
