00:00Thank y'all very much. So, as y'all can probably tell already, my redneck normally comes out at functions.
00:11And so, I'm going to give y'all a little back story on this next song.
00:17It's called Better Off Fishing.
00:20And I was talking to this girl, we were dating, and I took the day off,
00:26and I was supposed to hang out with her, but I ended up going fishing.
00:30And she was livid.
00:32And she called me, and we were just going back and forth at it, back and forth, back and forth.
00:39And she said, well, are you going to at least come see me tonight?
00:42And I thought about it for a second, and I said, baby, I'll be honest, honey,
00:47I think I'm better off staying out here.
00:49I'm probably better off fishing than coming to see you tonight,
00:52because we would just argue and argue.
00:54And, you know, she was mad to begin with,
00:58but whenever I started posting those fish pictures on Instagram and Facebook
01:02is when she really, really got mad.
01:06And we ended up breaking up.
01:09And I wrote a song about it called Better Off Fishing.
01:12Here it is right here.
01:13Honestly, baby, I'm better off fishing.
01:28She had that southern dry on real me and smile.
01:33I fell farther than a country mile.
01:36That heartbreak woman put a hurt on me.
01:40Never got to give her that diamond ring.
01:44Because I skipped that rock and watched it sink.
01:49I'd rather be out in the middle of a big lake.
01:53Sipping on six on a Flint rock tank.
01:57Catching them catfish all day.
02:00Far away from the missing and the bitching.
02:03Honestly, baby, I'm better off fishing.
02:07Hey!
02:12I got ten pound test in an old John Bolt.
02:17Ain't telling nobody about my honey hole.
02:20This whole damn world's gone lost its mind.
02:23Got Clint turned up, talking, killing time.
02:27Bobbing my head like a barber on a line.
02:30I'd rather be out in the middle of a big lake.
02:37Sipping on six on a Flint rock tank.
02:40Catching them catfish all day.
02:44Far away from the missing and the bitching.
02:47Honestly, baby, I'm better off fishing.
02:50Hey, they got crickets and crawlers out here.
03:03Hey, they grow them big in the water around here.
03:10Hey, ain't got no heartache down here.
03:16Just me, my dog, and an ice cold beer.
03:20Anybody ask, I've disappeared.
03:24Out in the middle of a big lake.
03:27Sipping on six on a Flint rock tank.
03:31Catching them catfish all day.
03:34Far away from the missing and the bitching.
03:37Honestly, baby, I'm better off fishing.
03:41Far away from the missing and the bitching.
03:44Honestly, baby, I'm better off fishing.
