    Like Marlon Brando, but bigger.
    You'll find that creature at the bottom of the deep down Susquehanna River.
    This one I had stood right on up to me,
    Tore out his hook and declared himself a prodigy.
    But oh no, fishing ain't what it used to be.
    I've seen some bad years, but this one is just killing me.
    One little nibble in thirteen years,
    I really pack 'em in.
    This one I had, I seen it in dreams,
    All shacked up with lightning and horizon beams.
    Well I bring 'em on up, and then I pack 'em on in
    In all the places I've been,
    And I swear it's never been like this before,
    Least not since 19 and 44.
    But today, I made a sick discovery,
    Lead box in Sassafras Cove.
    Well I brought him on up and then I packed him on in, oh yes,
    Now I'm really cashing in.
    Wash of the Chesapeake and Appalachian Blue Range,
    I have discovered the body of John Wilkes Booth.
    Yes, it's true, I have Mr. Booth.
    Everybody got to make a living somehow.
    Do I hear a million?
    Well I bring 'em on up and then I pack 'em on in.
