My baby's been wishin' that I'd take her fishin'
So we waited on the perfect day
Hitched up my old jonboat to see if it would still float
You should've seen the smile on her face
I found the little cove dropped the lines to try our luck
Before too long she said It's startin' to heat up
So she took off her shirt said I'll get a little sun
Handed me the Coppertone man I had me some fun
I rubbed it in real good and I didn't miss a spot
And I got to see that little pink bikini top 'cause the fish weren't bitin'
She said I'll lay out a little but if we get a nibble
I wanna be the one to reel him in
I said Baby you got it we'll tell 'em all you caught it
But you're gettin' some red there on your skin
So I rubbed her down again
And she said Baby that feels nice
Won't you lay right here beside me
She didn't have to ask me twice
I kissed her lips as the sun went down
We lost track of time as we floated around
That jonboat rocked out there in the dark
She still claims I stole her heart 'cause the fish weren't bitin'
We still laugh about that little fishin' trip we took
To this day she don't know I didn't bait the hook
You know I love to catch 'em but brother I won't lie
I had the best day of my life 'cause the fish weren't bitin'
No the fish weren't bitin'
