Bait Shop

We've tried shiners and suckers
Sinkers, grasshoppers and crickets
We're gonna catch all the fish we can
Right up to the limit
And when we're through we're gonna lure us in
A school of ladies
We're sportin aviators and mullets
Like it's still the 80s

Me and the boys
We're headed on down to the bait shop
On our way to the lake
From where we just ate at a truck stop
We ain't no community of scholars
All we need is beer
And a bunch of night crawlers
Me and the boys
We're headed on down to the bait shop

We've tried jigs and spinners
Minnows, leaches and flies
It's time to get busy doin' nothin'
Under sunny skies
At night we'll head in
To hook up with some honky tonk women
'Till then we're loadin' up
Our tackle boxes and chillin'

Me and the boys
We're headed on down to the bait shop
On our way to the lake
From where we just ate at a truck stop
We ain't no community of scholars
All we need is beer
And a bunch of night crawlers
Me and the boys
We're headed on down to the bait shop

We've tried grubs and crankers
Poppers, plugs and spoons
Got our poles, a can of skoal
And a guitar to play some tunes
When we're done we'll have fun
Snaggin' mermaids in the bar
Tellin' whoppers about
The trophy monsters we've caught so far

Me and the boys
Are headed on down to the bait shop
On our way to the lake
From where we just ate at a truck stop
We ain't no community of scholars
All we need is beer
And a bunch of night crawlers
Me and the boys
We're headed on down to the bait shop

Me and the boys
We're headed on down to the bait shop
Don't need nothin' fancy
Too keep us happy in our tank tops
We've got it down to a science
Even though we skipped college
We get by just fine
On bass and carnal knowledge
Me and the boys
We're headed on down to the bait shop
