My baby'd been wishing That I'd take her fishing So we waited on the perfect day Hitched up my old john boat To see if it would still float Should've seen the smile on her face I found a little cove, dropped the lines, to try our luck Before too long she said it's starting 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 want to be the one to reel him in I said "baby you got it" We'll tell 'em all you caught it But you're getting some red there on your skin So I rubbed her down again, 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 john boat 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 fishing 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'
