"River Rat" lyrics

Country as a coon skin cap
Know the river like the back of my hand with no map
Catch you fishing in my honey hole, bout to get slapped
Boy ya better start back tracking that bass track, got me talking like
Hell yeah it's about that time gotta fresh caught brim on a catfish line
Bout to drop my prop on a 9.9 I'ma flat bottom Jon boat, slippin' and slidin'
See I'm swinging this bitch around the Ben so if you're fishing
Better get what you call and reel it in I'm on a mission
Bout to catch a big 50 pound flathead
Pull up to the gut shed, throw it on the table like yup yup!
Ain't nothing like a sunset setting on a homemade dock, daddy built in 97
It's the closest thing to heaven so I know I'm gonna go, see rolling in my golden Jon boat

Some folks are California boogie boarding beach bums
Some like a pool up in the back yard when the spring comes
Some people take it to the lake and get to making a splash
Not me, you know why, cause I...
I'm a river rat
I'm a river rat

Gotta get to it baby yeah up at the crack
Let's all get the poles throw 'em up in the back
If you a caffeine fiend get a cup and a half
If you wake and bake man hit that puff and the pass
Got them lines all turnt and we workin' 'em
Channel cat white perch yeah we merkin' them
Game warden said ew you boys hurting them
Pontoon full of dimes and they twerkin' 'em

Party on the bank get them boats tied up
Sang a little hank and got them fish fried up
Drank a little drank if not light up
Ole Silverado sank man it's just my luck
Got 13 girls in the back of my truck
Hit swamp road gotta a little night stuck
It was all my fault didn't hit the right rutt
But it worked out good musta had the right touch

Some folks are California boogie boarding beach bums
Some like a pool up in the back yard when the spring comes
Some people take it to the lake and get to making a splash
Not me, you know why, cause I...
I'm a river rat

I'm gonna need y'all to pay attention, class is in section
Do exactly what I do right here
Y'all ready? Let's go!

Now slide to the left, 2 back to the right
Kick turn stomp that thing out right
Now 1 to the right, 2 back to the left
Shake it shake it shake it, but don't hurt yourself
Jump to the front put that thing in drive
Like a big truck driver just swing it real wide
Let's step to the back put that thing in reverse
Turn it on around while you make it work

Now work work work work
Turn it on around while you make it work
Work work work work
Let's step to the back put that thing in reverse
Turn it on around while you make it work
Work work work work
Now 1 to the right, 2 back to the left
Shake it shake it shake it, but don't hurt yourself

Some folks are California boogie boarding beach bums
Some like a pool up in the back yard when the spring comes
Some people take it to the lake and get to making a splash
Not me, you know why, cause I...
I'm a river rat
I'm a river rat
