Subject: Lyr Req: How Can I Keep from Fishing? From: open mike Date: 05 Jul 13 - 06:17 PM Does anyone know this song? Alice Gerrard just requested it saying she learned it in Montana...it would be a parody of "How can I keep from Singing." I see she is not only looking for the lyrics, but trying to find the woman who passed them along to her in Bozeman in 1992..(ALICE??!!) Here is here original post on facebook: I'm trying to locate a woman who gave me lyrics she'd written to the tune of How Can I Keep from Praying. Her lyrics were How Can I Keep from Fishing. This was in Bozeman, MT in 1992 after a concert there. Does anyone know who this might have been? Clues, info appreciated. Email agerrard@mindspring.com. |

Subject: RE: Lyr Req: How Can I Keep from Fishing? From: Ron Davies Date: 09 Jul 13 - 10:08 AM Or maybe I should say: "I am not perfect after all", since that is the current buzzword, it appears. But good luck with "Keep From Fishing". It does sound good. |
