112. Peter and James and John

1 Peter and James and John in a sailboat,
Peter and James and John in a sailboat,
Peter and James and John in a sailboat,
out on the beautiful sea.

2 They fished all night, but they caught nothing,
They fished all night, but they caught nothing,
They fished all night, but they caught nothing,
out on the beautiful sea.

3 Along came Jesus walkin' on the seashore,
Along came Jesus walkin' on the seashore,
Along came Jesus walkin' on the seashore,
out on the beautiful sea.

4 He said, "Throw your nets over on the other side,
He said, "Throw your nets over on the other side,
He said, "Throw your nets over on the other side,
out on the beautiful sea.

5 The nets were filled with great big fishes,
The nets were filled with great big fishes,
The nets were filled with great big fishes,
out on the beautiful sea.
