Wake up honey let me talk to you I had a dream last night that just can't come true About a man and a woman stuck right in the middle of heaven and you know where I hate to say they looked a lot like us When I saw 'em fight and I heard 'em fuss And I woke up with a premonition We just best beware The devil goes fishin' in trouble water He'll come callin' if we don't bother To make things right and love the way it's supposed to be There's an angel sittin' on our right shoulder But she won't stay there if it gets much colder We better watch out or it'll get a lot hotter Cause the devil goes fishin' in troubled water There are times we cross the line and let selfishness and foolish pride Leave us weak and make a big ol' target out of you and me But sweet forgiveness can fix it all And add another rock to that mighty wall That keeps the harsh winds out and helps to calm that mean ol' ranging sea The devil goes fishin' in trouble water He'll come callin' if we don't bother To make things right and love the way it's supposed to be There's an angel sittin' on our right shoulder But she won't stay there if it gets much colder We better watch out or it'll get a lot hotter Cause the devil goes fishin' in troubled water So let's put up a posted sign That says no fishin' in your heart and mine Trespassers best beware 'Cause there's a big ol' love in there The devil goes fishin' in trouble water He'll come callin' if we don't bother To make things right and love the way it's supposed to be There's an angel sittin' on our right shoulder But she won't stay there if it gets much colder We better watch out or it'll get a lot hotter 'Cause the devil goes fishin' in troubled water The devil goes fishin' in trouble water He'll come callin' if we don't bother To make things right and love the way it's supposed to be There's an angel sittin' on our right shoulder But she won't stay there if it gets much colder We better watch out or it'll get a lot hotter 'Cause the devil goes fishin' in troubled water
