Anyone know a song that begins with these words, please?

I did a quick internet search. And I came up with a couple of fisherman-related bits. Including one from the Mudcat song bank. But none like you mentioned.

I'll keep looking...

If there are problems we'll abate them
If there are none we'll create them

A fisherman with rod and line stood by
While men with boats and nets nearby
Were hauling in tons of fish and lobster
But you see it failed to register
A fisherman doesn't catch fish to get rich
He fishes to get away from his witch
