Floatin' This Creek

Put in this morning at first light

Had a biscuit on my way down

I was sittin' there waitin' on the first bite

From a rainbow or a brown

Anchor down at the bridge, gonna try a new midge

There was traffic flyin' by

Taillights glowin' red 30 feet overhead

But it felt like a thousand miles

I'm just floatin' this creek and takin' it slow

Tryin' to catch somethin' big, sip somethin' cold

I'd be a liar if I said I had a plan today

'Cept watch these banks roll by, take it all in

Don't get too deep, don't forget where I been

Nothin' but time to see where it takes me

That rush hour traffic kinda slowed down

'Bout the time that the fish did too

Just me and this ol' green boat now

Nothin' but nothin' to do

So I broke out a cold one, called my buddies, told 'em

Slipped up and caught a state record

That's a little white lie, he was good eatin' size

But I like my story better

I'm just floatin' this creek and takin' it slow

Tryin' to catch somethin' big, sip somethin' cold

I'd be a liar if I said I had a plan today

'Cept watch these banks roll by, take it all in

Don't get too deep, don't forget where I been

Nothin' but time to see where it takes me

Yeah, I'm just floatin' this creek

Put my boat back on the trailer, eased out on the blacktop

Kinda sucks but I gotta make a dollar

I'm feeling pretty good so I won't bitch

'Cause in the morning when I'm diggin' that ditch

I'll be floatin' this creek and takin' it slow

Tryin' to catch somethin' big, sip somethin' cold

I'd be a liar if I said I had a plan today

'Cept watch these banks roll by, take it all in

Don't get too deep, don't forget where I been

Nothin' but time to see where it takes me
