If I Could

If I could make my living going fishing Then I would make my living with a line and pole Put food on the table pay the money to the landlord Buy some working clothes Cause I ain't making money going fishing Like I'm paid at the factory If I could pay all these bills with my guitar Then I would pay these bills with some rock and roll Put food on the table pay the money to the landlord Buy some working clothes Cause I ain't making money playing guitar Like I'm paid at the factory Chorus: Now if I could (if I could) Then I would (then I would) Make money doing something that I love I'd thank my lucky stars above If I could just get by loving you dear Then I would just get by making love to you Put food on the table pay the money to the landlord Buy some working clothes Cause I ain't making money making love Like I'm paid at the factory Repeat Chorus: If I could make my living going fishing Then I would make my living with a line and pole Put food on the table pay the money to the landlord Buy some working clothes Cause I ain't making money going fishing Like I'm paid at the factory Repeat Chorus: If I could just get by loving you dear Then I would just get by making love to you Put food on the table pay the money to the landlord Buy some working clothes
