You Gotta Have A License

Lyrics

Me and brother Bill was a-goin' fishin'
 Down to the river, one day
 We had a can o' worms, a willer pole
 A big can o' minners and a lot o' sourdough
 The fish was a-bitin', was a-gonna have fun
 Then a big man come, say, "I'm a game warden"
 Chase me and brother Bill away
 Say, "take 'em outta sack, and throw 'em all back"
 Then the big man, him, do say:
 "Boys, you gotta have a license
 Yeah, you gotta have a license"
 We asked a-him, "Why?", the man replied:
 "'Cause, you gotta have a license"
 ♪
 Me drivin' down the open highway
 Passin' up highway 'trolman
 But, me go right along, not a-no do a wrong
 Trees a-go by me, think I'm a-fly'
 I'm a-sing a little song and a-have a lotta fun
 Then a whistle blow, and a-'fore I know
 A big man roll my way
 Me pull 'em down, and a-hit a-the ground
 I'm a-shakin' so, 'cause I have 'o know
 The big man, him, do say:
 "Well, you gotta have a license
 Yeah, you gotta have a license"
 I asked a-him, "Why?", the man replied:
 "'Cause, you gotta have a license"
 ♪
 Me got a pretty gal, her name Emilou
 She makin' me feel funny
 Me love a-that gal with a big lotta noise
 She givin' me kiss, but she givin' no joy
 And me pretty young, and I want a lotta fun
 She tell a-me "no", and a-watch a-my step
 She no wanna be too gay
 She say, "Don't I told you lotta big time"
 And my little gal, her, do say:
 "Well, we gotta have a license
 Yeah, we gotta have a license"
 I asked her, "Why?", she replied:
 "'Cause, you gotta have a license"
