He broke your heart,
And he tore your dreams in two.
And he kissed a bottom-feedinâ sucker-fish
In front of you.
Deep down you knew that it was never gonna last,
âCuz heâs a piece of stink-bait,
Always actinâ like a bass and,
Now youâre thinkinâ
Your ship is slowly sinkinâ.
Youâre stayinâ up all night long,
Drowninâ in your drinkinâ.
Before you give up,
Get your rear back in the water.
Dance a jig,
Jitterbug,
Or tie on a hula popper.
Then you throw out a line,
Reel it back in.
If you catch a boot,
You gotta cast it out again.
You know youâll never catch a keeper
If you sit around and cry.
So get back in that boat and fish!
Now you heard the girl heâs kissinâ
Is stirrinâ up a wake.
Sayin she hooked you good,
And threw you right back in the lake.
Just remember what your mama said,
About sticks and rocks.
Even though youâd like to smack her
With your metal tackle box,
You gotta throw out a line,
Reel it back in.
If you catch a boot,
You gotta cast it out again.
You know youâll never catch a keeper
If you sit around and cry.
So get back in that boat and fish!
So donât say farewell to forever,
Like happy ever after ainât never gonna work.
Donât you throw the towel in,
The last one you drug in
Was just a state record-breakinâ
Large-mouth jerk.
You gotta throw out a line,
Reel it back in
If you catch a boot
You gotta cast it out again
You know youâll never catch a keeper
If you sit around and cry
So get back in that boat and,
Throw out a line,
Reel it back in.
If you catch a boot,
You gotta cast it out again.
You know youâll never catch a keeper
If you sit around and cry.
So get back in that boat and fish!
Yeah, get back in that boat and fish!
Girl, get back in that boat,
And fish!
