"Reel Life" lyrics

Woke up this morning
Felt reel life closing in on me
Same old story
Wake up, traffic, work, repeat

But I got a bunch of time off that ain't been taken
Need a cold-beer day, some fish and a lake
And where the weather's just right, and crickets are singing
Sitting on the dock of the bay

Gonna get to cranking on my Zebco 33
Today I'm just a bass pro VIP
Little trolling in a John boat
C'est la vie
"I'm a gone fishing" sign
Got another on the line
With the pop tops all on ice
Sitting on a sweet spot
Yeah that's right
Paisley on the boombox
Got a bite
It's a hook line-and-sinker good time
Living the reel life
Living the reel life

Watching the bobber
Sure beats watching the clock "9-to-5"
Out on the water
Got a day God painted with a little sunshine

But I got a bunch of time off that ain't been taken
Need a cold-beer day, some fish and a lake
And where the weather's just right, and crickets are singing
Sitting on the dock of the bay

Gonna get to cranking on my Zebco 33
Today I'm just a bass pro VIP
Little trolling in a John boat
C'est la vie
"I'm a gone fishing" sign
Got another on the line
With the pop tops all on ice
Sitting on a sweet spot
Yeah that's right
Paisley on the boombox
Got a bite
It's a hook line-and-sinker good time
Living the reel life
Living the reel life

We're just living the reel life out here
We're living the reel life
Raise a beer
It's a hell of a hook-line-and-sinker good time
And it's been too long
That's why

Gonna get to cranking on my Zebco 33
Today I'm just a bass pro VIP
Little trolling in a John boat
C'est la vie
"I'm a gone fishing" sign
Got another on the line
With the pop tops all on ice
Sitting on a sweet spot
Yeah that's right
Paisley on the boombox
Got a bite
It's a hook line-and-sinker good time
Living the reel life
Living the reel life
Living the reel life
