Woke up early, crack of dawn
Had my tackle box and my waders on
Tried to slip out quiet, not a soul to wake
But then I heard her voice, made my heart shake
I went to go fishing, but she caught me
Hook, line, and sinker wouldn't let me be
The lure of the lake couldn't compare
To the lovin' in her eyes and the way she cared
Rod and reel were waitin' by the door
But her sweet whispers had me wantin' more
Said she'd snuggle up close if I'd stay a while
How could I resist that smile
I went to go fishing, but she caught me
Hook, line, and sinker wouldn't let me be
The lure of the lake couldn't compare
To the lovin' in her eyes and the way she cared
She reeled me in with her warm embrace
Forgot all about that fishin' place
Her kiss was sweeter than any catch
Layin' here with her is the perfect match
Now the sun is settin', I ain't cast a line
But spendin' my day with her was just fine
Tomorrow's another day to cast and dream
But tonight I'm holdin' my country queen
I went to go fishing, but she caught me
Hook, line, and sinker wouldn't let me be
The lure of the lake couldn't compare
To the lovin' in her eyes and the way she cared
So here's to my girl, the one who won
She caught this man before the morning sun
In her arms, I know I'll always stay
Forgetting the fishing on this perfect day
I went to go fishing, but she caught me
Hook, line, and sinker wouldn't let me be
The lure of the lake couldn't compare
To the lovin' in her eyes and the way she cared
