[Intro]
Honestly, baby, I'm better off fishin' (Hey)

[Verse 1]
She had that southern drawl, a reel-me-in smile
I fell farther than a country mile
That heartbreak woman put a hurt on me
Never got to give her that diamond ring
I skipped that rock and watched it sink

[Chorus]
I'd rather be out in the middle of a big lake
Sippin' on six on a flintrock bank
Catchin' them catfish all day
Far away from the missin' and the bitchin'
Honestly, baby, I'm better off fishin' (Hey)

[Verse 2]
I got a ten-pound test and an old jon boat
Ain't tellin' nobody 'bout my honey hole
This whole damn world's done lost it's mind
Got Clint turned up, talkin' "Killin' Time"
Bobbin' my head like a bobber on a line

[Chorus]
I'd rather be out in the middle of a big lake
Sippin' on six on a flintrock bank
Catchin' them catfish all day
Far away from the missin' and the bitchin'
Honestly, baby, I'm better off fishin'
[Bridge]
Hey, they got crickets and crawlers out here
Hey, they grow 'em big in the water 'round here
Hey, they ain't got no heartache down here
It's just me, my dog, and an ice-cold beer
If anybody ask, I've disappeared

[Chorus]
Out in the middle of a big lake
Sippin' on six on a flintrock bank
Catchin' them catfish all day
Far away from the missin' and the bitchin'
Honestly, baby, I'm better off fishin' (Hey)
Out in the middle of a big lake
Sippin' on six on a flintrock bank
Catchin' them catfish all day
Far away from the missin' and the bitchin'
Honestly, baby, I'm better off fishin'
Far away from the missin' and the bitchin'
Honestly baby, I'm better off fishin'

[Outro]
Yeah, I'm better off fishin'
Honestly, baby, I'm better off fishin' (Hey)
