I filled up two shopping carts late last night The one was full of fishing gear, the other Miller Lite
The checkout-lady laughed and said 'You think you got enough' And I said 'Yeah, You're probably right', and filled another two carts up
Gonna catch all the fish Gonna drink all the beer Gonna head outta town We're not staying here Might take all day Might take all year Till we catch all the fish Till we drink all the beer
So I picked up the boys at dawn and we were on our way It hadn't been ten minutes before Jimmy's cellphone rang His old lady asked him how we'd be on the lake And I said You tell her 'We're staying here however long it takes'
Gonna catch all the fish Gonna drink all the beer Better warn her now Better make it clear Might take all day Might take all year Till we catch all the fish Till we drink all the beer
Just as long as there's a can left in that cooler Just as long as there's a bass left in that lake That just means we still got some work to do here Just as long as there's still gas left in that tank
As long as there's a can left in that cooler As long as there's a bass left in that lake That just means that we still got some work to do here As long as there's still gas left in that tank
Well, we caught all the fish And we drank all the beer And we ran outta gas Now we're stuck out here With lots of emtpy cans And worthless fishing gear Cause we drank all the fish And we caught all the beer Well, I mean we caught all the fish And drank all the beer
On my fifth birthday I got so upset About the brand new bike that I didn't get I'd prayed my heart out and it didn't seem fair. I told my grandpa, "I guess God doesn't care" And he just smiled and said, "My child,"
"Make no mistake Every prayer you pray gets answered Even though Sometimes, the answer is no."
Five years later, out behind the shed With a stolen pack of grandpa's cigarettes I struck a match, and held that first one to my lips And prayed to God, "Please let me get away with this." And through the smoky air I saw grandpa standing there.
Make no mistake Every prayer you pray gets answered Even though Sometimes, the answer is no
When I think of all the answers in my life, I would have to say There's no doubt it was always for the best when I didn't get my way.
Grandpa got older, like grandpas do His health was failing and I guess I knew It'd be best if he was called on home But selfishly I prayed that God would keep him hanging on And when he passed away, in my mind I heard him say.
Make no mistake Every prayer you pray gets answered Even though Sometimes, the answer is no.
I remember sayin I dont care either way Just as long as he or she is healthy Im ok Then the doctor pointed to the corner of the screen And said Ya see that thing right there well ya know what that means

When I was ten years old I remember thinking how cool it would be When we were goin' on an eight hour drive If I could just watch TV And I'd-a given anything To have my own Pac-Man game at home I used to have to get a ride down to the arcade And now I've got it on my phone

Hey, wake up Martin Luther Welcome to the future

Inflatable pool full of dad's hot air I was three years old, splashin' everywhere And so began my love affair With water
On a river bank with all my friends A big old rope tied to a limb And you're a big old wuss if you don't jump in The water
Yeah, when that summer sun starts to beatin' down And you don't know what to do Grab your swimming trunks Ice up that old igloo And drive until the map turns blue
Daytona Beach on spring break Eighteen girls up on stage White t-shirts about to be sprayed With water
Oh let 'er go boys
Yeah, when that summer sun starts to beatin' down And you don't know what to do Just go and grab someone You wanna see in a bathing suit And drive until the map turns blue
You can stay right there when the daylight's gone Play truth or dare and it wont take long 'Fore you and her got nothin' on But water
All you really need this time of year Is a pair of shades and ice cold beer And a place to sit, somewhere near Water
I remember, trying not to stare the night that I first met you You had me mesmerized And three weeks later in the front porch light Taking forty five minutes to kiss goodnight I hadn’t told you yet, but I thought I loved you then
And now you’re my whole life, now you’re my whole world And I just can’t believe the way I feel about you girl Like a river meets the sea, stronger than it's ever been We’ve come so far since that day and I thought I loved you then
I remember, taking you back to right where I first met you You were so surprised There people around but I didn’t care I got down on one knee right there And once again, I thought I loved you then
And now you’re my whole life, now you’re my whole world I just can’t believe the way I feel about you girl Like a river meets the sea, stronger than it’s ever been We’ve come so far since that day and I thought I loved you then
I can just see you with a baby on the way I can just see you when your hair is turning grey What I can’t see is how I'm ever going to love you more But I’ve said that before
And now you’re my whole life, now you’re my whole world And I just can’t believe the way I feel about you girl We’ll look back someday, at this moment that we’re in And I’ll look at you and say, "and I thought I loved you then" And I thought I loved you then
When I was ten years old I remember thinking how cool it would be When we were goin' on an eight hour drive If I could just watch TV And I'd-a given anything To have my own Pac-Man game at home I used to have to get a ride down to the arcade And now I've got it on my phone

I'm still breathing and my heart's still beating I might as well start living again And so I threw on a shirt, put on a jacket Went out to meet some friends And now I'm acting like I couldn't be better Like I've always got this smile on my face Walking around, weaving through the crowd And trying not to look out of place
'Cause everybody's here Yeah but if you look close you'll see Everybody's here Everybody's here but me
The first time somebody asked where you were I didn't know what to say The second time somebody asked where you were I lied and said, "She's on her way." The third time somebody asked where you were Well I just wanted to scream I guess the land of the living ain't no place For a heartbroken zombie like me.
'Cause everybody's here Yeah but if you look close you'll see It's painfully clear Everybody's here but me
Now I look around and see a lot of single people But there ain't a single one like me Because they all wanna leave here with somebody And I just wanna leave
Everybody's here It's painfully clear
Everybody's here Yeah but if you look close you'll see Everybody's here Everybody's here but me
Woahhhhh woahhhhhhh She's got Brazilian leather boots on the pedal of her German car Listening to the Beatles singing back in the USSR Yeah she's goin' around the world tonight But she ain't leavin' here She's just going to meet her boyfriend down at the street fair

You know everywhere has somethin' there known for Although usually it washes up on our shores Little Italy, Chinatown, sittin' there side by side Live from New York, It's Saturday Night!
French kiss, Italian ice, Spanish moss in the moonlight Just another American, just another American, It's just another American Saturday night
