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
Floatin' 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
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
Floatin' this creek
