The Fish Aren't Bitin' Today Lyrics - David Allan Coe

Take the jib sail down boys, take the jib sail down 

Turn this ship around boys, before we run aground 

The fish aren't biting today boys, fish aren't biting today 

I'm gonna lay on my bunk and get drunk as a skunk 

?Cause the fish aren't biting today 

There's six foot waves and my stomach craves 

Some good old Antiguan rum 

I put some away for a rainy day 

And the rain she's starting to come now 

There's a northern wind and the lights are dim 

Like a good fresh Cuban cigar 

I got me a hutch where there might be a bunch 

In the Captions pickle jar, so
