When you wanna do a line no one can reproach ya
Casting off the side of a little two stroker

VERSE 2 Same chord figure as VERSE 1


Rock stars tend to suicide
But they don't seem so romantic when you're worried 'bout tide
Bon Scott would be alive this week 
If he'd just went fishing from Mordialloc Creek

Give it all up for hook, line and sinker

Vote with your feet, rock's had its day
(Vote for boat, vote for...)

Don't wanna be the bad boys of rock
Don't want my morality to cause anyone shock

Axe king or disco, metal or rapper
(Vote for boat, vote for...)

Give it all up, and go catch some snapper.
