So Casey gets to know Rodney Clawson through Janet Bell who is director of Angler Relations at BASS and a mover and shaker in the industry. Rodney is an incredible songwriter, in fact he wrote "I Saw God Today" that George Strait (love him) is riding high in the charts with. (Rodney Clawson has a Myspace page that's worth a visit.)
You can download Casey Ashley's "Fisherman" at Outdoormusic.com. Nice to have on the Ipod for those early morning rides to the lake. Here are the lyrics.
Brother it’s a long road, from Amistad to Toho,
Doesn’t matter which way you go, the miles are all the same.
When you finally get there, and when you pul the cover off,
Then it’s time to get a little bit lost, out on the lake.
Gonna back this boat into the water,
Find a way to win a couple dollars,
The weather man says there’s a cold front coming down,
Bring it on, I’ve seen it all by now.
I can catch ‘em shallow, I can catch ‘em deep,
Open water or the back of a creek,
The wind, the rain, to me it’s all the same,
I make a living playing this game,
I thank the Lord above every time I can,
I get to be a fisherman.
Come Thursday morning, I’ll have me something figured out,
It’s not definite but just about, that I can make the cut,
I’m bettin’ on Sunday, that I’ll be fishing solo,
Just me and my cameraman Joe, And with a little bit of luck I’ll have just enough.
I can catch ‘em shallow, I can catch ‘em deep,
Open water or the back of a creek,
The wind, the rain, to me it’s all the same,
I make a living playing this game,
I thank the Lord above every time I can,
I get to be a fisherman.
GREAT SONG.
