Floatin' This Creek (Deluxe Edition Bonus Track)

(albüm: Born Here Live Here Die Here - 2020)

Put in this morning at first light
Had a biscuit on my way down
I was sitting there waiting on the first bite
From a rainbow or a brown

Anchor down at the bridge, gonna try a new midge
There was traffic flying by
Taillights glowing red, thirty feet overhead
But it felt like a thousand miles

I'm just floating this creek and taking it slow
Trying to catch something big, sip something cold
I'd be a liar if I said I had a plan today

'Cept watch these banks roll by, take it on in
Don't get too deep, don't forget where I been
Nothing but time to see where it takes me
Floating this creek

That rush hour traffic kinda slowed down
'Bout the time that the fish did too
Just me and this ol' green boat now
Nothing but nothing 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 eating size
But I like my story better

I'm just floating this creek and taking it slow
Trying to catch something big and sip something 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
Nothing but time to see where it takes me
Yeah, I'm just floating 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 digging that ditch

I'll be floating this creek and taking it slow
Trying to catch something big and sip something 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
Nothing but time to see where it takes me
Floating this creek
