Me and brother Bill was goin' fishin' down to the river one day
We had a can of worms and a willer poles
A big can of minners and a lot of sourdough
The fish was a bitin' we gonna have fun

Then the big man come said I'm a game warden
Chases me and brother Bill away
They take 'em out of sack and throw them all back
The big man him do say

Boy you gotta have a license yeah you gotta have a license
We asked him why the man replied cause you got to have a license
[ instrumental ]
We drive 'em down the open highway passin' up a highway patrolman
Let me go right along but I no do wrong
Trees go by me think I'm a flyin'
I sing a little song and I have lotta fun

Then whistle blow and poor I know a big man rolled my way
Me pull 'em down and I hit the ground
Shakin' so cause I have to know the big man him do say

Well you gotta have a license yeah you gotta have a license
I asked him why the man replied cause you got to have a license
[ fiddle ]
Me got a pretty gal her name Lou she makin' me feel a funny
Me love that gal with a big lotta noise
She gave me kiss nut she given no joy
Me pretty young and I wanna lotta fun

She tell me no to watch my step
You know don't wanna be too gay
Said don't I told you a lot of big times
And my little gal her did say

Well we gotta have a license yeah we gotta have a license
I asked her why she replied cause you got to have a license
