Fish Weren't Bitin - Craig Morgan

My baby’d been wishing

That I’d take her fishing

So we waited on the perfect day

Hitched up my old john boat

To see if it would still float

Should’ve seen the smile on her face

I found a little cove, dropped the lines, to try our luck

Before too long she said it’s starting to heat up

So she took off her shirt

Said I’ll get a little sun

Handed me the Coppertone

Man I had me some fun

I rubbed it in real good, and I didn’t miss a spot

And I got to see that little pink bikini top

Cause the fish weren’t bitin'

She said I’ll lay out a little

But if we get a nibble

I want to be the one to reel him in

I said «baby you got it»

We’ll tell ‘em all you caught it

But you’re getting some red there on your skin

So I rubbed her down again, she said baby that feels nice

Won’t you lay right here beside me, she didn’t have to ask me twice

I kissed her lips

As the sun went down

We lost track of time

As we floated around

That john boat rocked out there in the dark

She still claims I stole her heart

Cause the fish weren’t bitin'

We still laugh about that little fishing trip we took

To this day, she don’t know, I didn’t bait the hook

You know I love to catch ‘em, but brother I won’t lie

I had the best day of my life

Cause the fish weren’t bitin'

No the fish weren’t bitin'
