Lyrics[]

Fishermen go out to sea
Where delicious fishies be
They cast their nets in hope of eel or cod
In pond and lake and stream
'Tis every angler's dream
To bag the big one armed with reel and rod
Tuna, perch, and halibut and flounder
Snapper, chub, and schools of fat walleye
The one that got away's a hundred pounder
But this old salt's got bigger fish to fry!
I'm after somethin' else, ya see
'Tis gold and silver waits for me
There's nowhere else I'd rather be
Than fishin' for money!
Pennies, nickels, dimes, and next
Come pounds, doubloons and traveler's checks
Cast off, mateys! Clear the decks!
I'm fishin' for money!
Fishin' for money!
There off the starboard bow
Could be a real cash cow
I stand ready with me hook and line
All hands fore and aft!
Up to the mizzenmast!
You, keep a sharp eye out for dollar signs!
[gasp] Hold on! I thought I felt a little nibble
I reel it in and put it in me sack
Big or small don't matter, I don't quibble
And you can bet I don't throw nothin' back!
Shekels, pesos, euros, lira
All currency from far-a and near-a
No credit cards accepted here-a
I'm fishin' for money!
What herring, sturgeon, or sardine
Compares with rolls of foldin' green
My wallet's fat when times are lean
I'm fishin' for money!
Trollin', trollin'
We troll for Moby Dollar, thar she blows!
Rollin', rollin'
We're reelin' in and rollin' in the dough
When all the world's been bought and sold
Gold's still worth its weight in gold
Come to daddy, oh motherload!
I'm fishin' for money!
I pinch a penny twenty ways
And save it for a rainy day
Whatever I can salt away
I'm fishin' for money!
Oh register, your pretty ring
I love to listen to ye sing
Me favorite song, ka-ching, ka-ching!
I'm fishin', fishin', fishin' for money!
Fishin' for money!
Woohoohoo, I love it! Ka-ching!
