"Fishing Boat Song" lyrics

"Fishing Boat Song"

From Springfield, Mass to Concord Town
I saw those lights go down
In a gorge in Kansas
I met my Jesus
He laid me down and he said

If I build you a fishing boat
Would you leave everyone you know
If I build you a fishing boat
Would you leave everyone you know

Would you be more likely to kill more time with me
And then a sudden gale began to wail
It set my heart like no other love
Like no other love

From Springfield, Mass to Concord Town
I saw my lights go down
