Version 1 of the lyrics

1  Sat here by this stony brook                                            Sat here by this stony brook until the grey day turned to dust 1
2  Until the grey day turned to dust                                                   When up swam a fish with a children's book thought that I was lost. 2
3  When up swam a fish with a children’s book                                       He was on his way to the salmon hop, that's where they go to breed 3
4  Thought that I was lost                                            Saw me sitting on this log and thought I'd like to read. 4

5  He        was on his way to the salmon hop                   The night was cloudy but          the moon he found a hole 5
6  That’s where they go                                         to breed   Said that he felt bad for me cause I had no place to go 6
2  Saw me sitting on this log   2
7  And thought I’d like to read                                        Why aren't you at the harvest ball with some sweet young gal 7
8                                                                                    You just sit like a bump on the log and call that fish your pal. 8
3  The night was cloudy   3
9  But the moon he found a hole                                    Well, I told him I was an orphan lived here all alone 9
10  Said that he felt bad for me                               But many people have often tried to catch and take me home 10
11  'Cause I had no place to go   They never caught me!                11

12  Why aren’t you at the harvest ball                        Thought that I was a hiding, call this log my home 12
13  With some                               sweet young gal   But the fish and the moon and a sweet young gal 13
14  You just sit like a bump on the log   All want me for their own.               14

6  Lived here all alone   6
17  But many people have often tried                                                      So I met that gal at the harvest ball, she took me to her room 17
18  To catch and take me home                                           While I slept in children's dreams, the fish ran away with the moon. 18
