Lyrics

Verse1 When he was young you'd not find him doing well in school+His mind would turn to the waters+Always the focus of adolescent ridicule+He has no time for farmer's daughters+Alienated from the clique society+A lonely boy finds peace in fishing+His mother says, "John, this is not the way life's s'posed to be+Don't you see the life your missing?"and he says... Chorus1 When I grow up I want to be One of the harvesters of the sea I think before my days are done I want to be a fisherman Verse2 Now years gone by we find a man who rules the sea+He sets out on a dark may morning+To bring his catch back to this small community+He doesn't see the danger dawning+ Four hours up, oh, the ocean swelled and swelled+The fog rolled in, it started raining+"The starboard bow, oh my god, we're goig down!"+They do not hear his frantic mayday and he says.... Chorus1 Chorus2 "I'll live and die a fisherman" Calling john the fisherman Calling john the fisherman We're calling john the fisherman Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
