Mind On Fishin'

(альбом: Ain't That Kind Of Cowboy - 2020)

Let her go boys

Well I got up early on this Lord's day
With the sun peeking through the curtains
Thought I'd wet a line for a couple good hours
And still make the 10 o'clock sermon

But the sky is blue and the breeze is cool
And they're biting good, not to mention
If I left right now might make it somehow
But I doubt I could pay attention

I'd rather be on the lake with my mind on God
In the middle of His creation
In an old Jon Boat with my Zebco rod
For some private conversation
There might be a few people talking bad about me
When they see that I'm a-missing
But I'd rather be on the lake with my mind on God
Than in church with my mind on fishing

Well I like that preacher and I love how it feels
When he really gets to throwing down
But I'd rather do my talking with the man upstairs
When there's nobody else around
If I was there right now I'd be thinking 'bout
Which lure I was gonna cast
And he don't need another fool sitting in that pew
Dreaming 'bout a ten pound bass

I'd rather be on the lake with my mind on God
In the middle of His creation
In an old Jon Boat with my Zebco rod
For some private conversation
There might be a few people talking bad about me
When they see that I'm a-missing
But I'd rather be on the lake with my mind on God
Than in church with my mind on fishing

With my thoughts a-drifting
I ain't even listening
While it all goes right over my head

I'd rather be on the lake with my mind on God
In the middle of His creation
In an old Jon Boat with my Zebco rod
For some private conversation
There might be a few people talking bad about me
When they see that I'm a-missing
But I'd rather be on the lake with my mind on God
Than in church with my mind on fishing
I'd rather be on the lake with my mind on God
Than in church with my mind on fishing

With my mind on fishing
