robert earl keen - the five pound bass lyrics
up this morning
before the sun
fixed me some coffee and a honey bun
jumped in my pickup
gave her the gas
i’m goin’ out to catch a five pound b-ss
down by the lake side
just off the ramp
all them people sleeping in their fising camp
some out in the pup tents
some out on the gr-ss
they all be dreaming ’bout that five pound b-ss
the early birdie always gets his worm
me i always get my wish
when you’re talking ’bout that five pound b-ss son
the early wormy gets the fish
jumped in my john boat
i stow my gear
i fire her up and when i am in the clear
i sail across that water
as smooth as gl-ss
ready here i come you five pound b-ss
i find a perfect spot
some old dead trees
back in a canyon where you cain’t feel no breeze
i tie my lure
i make my cast
it’s breakfast time you five pound b-ss
that old sun is rising
that water is clear
i watch my lure as it’s flying through the air
i see a ripple
i hear a splash
lord have mercy, it’s a five pound b-ss
spoken:
that’s a five pound b-ss son
aw it’s big as a god d-mned baby
