letra de sweetwater - vance gilbert
[verse 1]
sweetw-ter casts his line
leaning up against the no fishing sign
cops go by don’t pay him no mind
like it’s always been that way
sweetw-ter got that name
’cause when he drop his hook
the fish come running
and now he’s got this much preferred spot
and he’ll work it the rest of the day
[pre-chorus]
every once in a while some uninformed child
will make fun of his crippled right hand
and an older child will smack the young one
upside the back of his head sayin’
“don’t you get it?”
[chorus]
sweetw-ter
throw out a line
show me how you do your
day to day
sweetw-ter
ain’t that a crime
the way you got to do your
day to day
[verse 2]
sweetw-ter broke up a fight latе one night
and caught a knife in that right hand
but he savеd the life of this young girl
caught up in a drug deal going all wrong
turns out she was the mayor’s child
quite the news item for a little while
i can still see the mayor pinning that star
on sweetw-ter’s jacket and the cameras all flashin’
[pre-chorus]
sweetw-ter did a tour
back in ’51, the korean war
still he remains undecorated
save for that star
[chorus]
sweetw-ter
throw out a line
show me how you do your
day to day
sweetw-ter
ain’t that a crime
the way you got to do your
day to day
[bridge]
show me how you do it (do it)
(show me how you do it, do it)
(show me how you do it, do it)
(show me how you do it, do it)
show me how you do it, do it, do it
(show me how you do it, do it)
show me how you do it
(show me how you do it, do it)
(show me how you do it, do it)
“ain’t no secret” sweetw-ter said
“check out my hook—it ain’t about bait
you can see for yourself
it’s the left-handed cast
of a right-handed man
that gives me my touch”
[verse 3]
and all the fish understand
h-ll, they line up just to get caught by sweetw-ter
yes they do
and at the end of the day
he’ll take the very last one
and tell the rest of ’em
“i’ll see y’all tomorrow”
[chorus]
sweetw-ter
throw out a line
show me how you do your
day to day
sweetw-ter
ain’t that a crime
the way you got to do your
day to day
[outro]
come on, show me how you do it
do it
show me how
show me how you do your day to day
come on now
sweetw-ter
cast the night and day
show me how you do your day to day
show me how you do it
do your day to day
