Woke up this morning, got my tackle box and hat
Gonna catch me some fish, you know that's where it's at
Grabbed my trusty ole' rod and hopped in my pickup truck (uh huh)
Headed down to the lake, hoping for just a little luck
Fishin' pole in my hands, hooked up my favorite lure
Country music on the radio, cold soda in the cooler
Sittin' here soakin' up the sun, just me and myself
A bad day fishin' beats a good day doin' anything else
Castin' my line in the water, feelin' so alive
Eyes watchin' that bobber, just waitin' for the dive
Reelin' in my catch, snap a selfie with my phone
Back in the lake you go there Mr. Fish, head on back home
Fishin' pole in my hands, hooked up my favorite lure
Country music on the radio, cold soda in the cooler
Sittin' here soakin' up the sun, just me and myself
A bad day fishin' beats a good day doin' anything else
Reelin' in the sunshine, catchin' dreams as they pass by
Gentle breeze rippling the water under the clear blue sky
Throwin' out my line, reelin' it back in hoping
Fishin' is my therapy, my personal way of coping
Fishin' pole in my hands, hooked up my favorite lure
Country music on the radio, cold soda in the cooler
Sittin' here soakin' up the sun, just me and myself
A bad day fishin' beats a good day doin' anything else
My gal just texted me and asked, Where are you hun?
Fishing at the lake, I replied, just having fun
The picture she sent made it clear what she wanted to do
So I tossed my gear back in the truck, and home I flew
Fishin' pole back in my truck, forgot my favorite lure
Country music on the radio, soda gettin' warm in the cooler
Scootin' down the road, my baby's waitin' at the house
Bad day fishin' beats a good day doin' ALMOST anything else
A bad day fishin' beats a good day doin' ALMOST anything else
A bad day fishin' beats a good day doin' ALMOST anything else
