Gone Fishing

[Verse 1]
He'd been on the lake more times this month then all last year combined
I didn't think much of it 'til he stayed out there all night
So I drove out to Percy Priest
Found him kissing some blonde in his back seat
Had an epiphany, told myself that I
Had to teach that good old boy a lesson when the sun got settin'

[Chorus]
He's gone fishing out in the dark
Wasn't hard to fit him in the trunk of my car
Had to scrub down the dock and his tackle box
Used a whole damn gallon of Clorox
He's gone fishing, I'm at the bar
Perfect alibi, drinking PBR
Nobody even knows he's missing
Bet he's wishing
He'd never gone fishing

[Verse 2]
I'll give it a couple days and then I'll call the cops
Say that I ain't seen him since he walked out with his Zebco rod
Try to cry a tear or two when I'm interviewed on the local news
Join the search crew, beg 'em not to call it off
Do everything a heart broke wife would do
Except tell the truth

[Chorus]
He's gone fishing out in the dark
Wasn't hard to fit him in the trunk of my car
Had to scrub down the dock and his tackle box
Used a whole damn gallon of Clorox
He's gone fishing, I'm at the bar
Perfect alibi, drinking PBR
Nobody even knows he's missing
Bet he's wishing
He'd never gone fishing

[Interlude]
I bet you do, baby

[Bridge]
Mmm, mmm, it's a real small town
I'm sure I'll see that blonde around
I wouldn't be surprised if out of the blue
Turns out she's gone fishing too

[Chorus]
He's gone fishing out in the dark
Wasn't hard to fit him in the trunk of my car
Had to scrub down the dock and his tackle box
Used a whole damn gallon of Clorox
He's gone fishing, I'm at the bar
Perfect alibi, drinking PBR
Nobody even knows he's missing
Bet he's wishing
He'd never gone fishing

[Outro]
I bet he's wishing
Wishing he'd never gone fishing
I bet he's wishing
Wishing he'd never gone fishing
Wishing he'd never gone fishing
Hmm-mmm
