Just an early morning, Momma's in the kitchen making biscuits again
Daddy's in his tool shed packing his tackle box to go
It was late that morning we headed out the door
Paul B Johnson, that's where we're headed to
Past the old lady's, she's got coffins on her roof
Past the old drive-in, we go on Saturday night
We're going down old Highway 49 till we get to the lake
There's a little play ground we go and we play
While daddy sets the tent up momma relaxes in the shade
We're gonna go boating this Sunday afternoon
We're gonna have a good time all of us in the sun
Big sister puts her skies on, Daddy throws her out of the boat
He says, hang on tight darlin 'cause daddy ain't going slow
It was a beautiful day to be out on the lake
Such a beautiful wonderful day out on the lake
