[Verse 1]
G D
He pulled up in his red Corvette

Salmon shorts and a white v-neck
G D A
I said wow you know how to dress down for a city guy
[Verse 2]
G D
We headed out to a spot on the lake
G D
A couple zebcos and a cup full of bait
G
I could tell pretty fast
D A
He had more than just bass on his mind
[Chorus]
D
Oh I was fishing he was wishing
G
We were kissing I was getting
D A
Madder than a hornet in an old coke can
D
Getting closer sliding over
G
Crowding up my casting shoulder
D A
Reaching out and tryna hold my reeling hand
G A
Saying I'm pretty saying he's in love

And how it don't get any better than this

Boy if you would
(Mute) D
Shut up and fish

G D
For a little while he calmed down and let up
G D
But then he went right back to pushing his luck
G
And that line of mine
D A
Wasn't all I wanted to throw in, oh no
[Chorus]
D
Oh I was fishing he was wishing
G
We were kissing I was getting
D A
Madder than a hornet in an old coke can

Getting closer sliding over

Crowding up my casting shoulder

Reaching out and tryna hold my reeling hand
G A
Saying I'm pretty saying he's in love

Playing captain Casanova
