GWell I woke up this morning about a Cquarter past four grabbed myD7 cap and my bag
and slipped out the door And hookGed up my tractor to the Cu-haul hitch and wentD7 and picked up Vince and we headed out to peep the sitch',
Figured we’d try to get into some smallies in the clearwater G C D7 D7Prayin' there wasn’t nothing to get snagged up on
(Lick 2)
GSo we were cCruising somD7ewhere near Livingston
Had some herb in my bowl and
lit it again
I was jabbered at the jaw and crimson in the eye and on the way to dale
hollow
I was floatin' like a butterfly then I got stung by a bee
(Lick 3)
Had to squeeze the mustard uncle Vinnie said wow then I saw the lights flash
and my heart sank down
then a man rolled up with a real nice lean and I rolled down the window and
he smelled my weed
he said I’m officer Looper the Tennessee State Trooper
and I’ll take your license, and your registration, and your grass
I guess it was only a matter of time
(Lick 3)
He said where you headin', I said to catch some bass He said step on out
under my magnifying glass,
he made me watch his fingers and touch my nose then he made me count to
thirty but then he let me go
made my day, I reckon it was a little catch and release
(Lick 4)
So that there’s my story and I want you to know, if your goina go fishing
better taker slow,
better look both ways, and keeper in line, let this be a lesson to you and
your partners in crime
Always watch your 6 & 9, don’t roll through the stop sign, you don’t always
need to make the verses rhyme
Don’t be mixin liquor with your wine, if you feel so inclined to keep me in
mind
And by the way, only break one law..... at a time
(Lick 5)
