Fishing Spot

Late last night, I made up my mind

Set my alarm for 5:05

Coleman full of coffee, rods in the truck

Time to knock off a little tackle box dust

30 minute drive, and walk down a hill

To a little piece of water where the world stands still

And I still get hung up on that oak tree

Throw that Texas rig you showed me

Learned a lot about life, wetting a line on a muddy riverbank with you

We'd talk pickup trucks to Jesus

Through Redman and Bocephus

You always knew how to listen and just what to say

And that's what brought me out here today

Instead of standing at your stone, I'm sittin' on your rock

Catching up with you at your fishin' spot

♪

Well, I know there's better places

And I got a nice boat at the house

But floating out there, filling up a live well

Ain't what today's about

I can still hear you laughing now

When I get hung up on that oak tree

Throw that Texas rig you showed me

Learned a lot about life, wetting a line on a muddy riverbank with you

We'd talk pickup trucks to Jesus

Through Redman and Bocephus

You always knew how to listen and just what to say

And that's what brought me out here today

Instead of standing at your stone, I'm sittin' on your rock

Catching up with you at your fishin' spot

♪

They say, there ain't a bad day fishing

Yeah, and I wish that was true

The only bite I've had, I missed it

But there's nothing like missing you

And I get hung up on that oak tree

Throw that Texas rig you showed me

Learned a lot about life, wetting a line on a muddy riverbank with you

Talkin' pickup trucks to Jesus

Through Redman and Bocephus

You always knew how to listen and just what to say

And that's what brought me out here today

Instead of standing at your stone, I'm sittin' on your rock

Catching up with you at your fishin' spot
