Well I woke up
this morning
about a quarte
r past four gr
abbed my cap a
nd my bag and
slipped out th
e door
And hooked up
my tractor to
the u-haul hit
ch and went an
d picked up Vi
nce and we hea
ded out to pee
p the sitch'
Figured we’d t
ry to get into
some smallies
in the clearw
ater
Prayin' there
wasn’t nothing
to get snagge
d up on
(Lick 2)
So we were cru
ising somewher
e near Livings
ton Had some h
erb in my bowl
and lit it ag
ain
I was jabbered
at the jaw an
d crimson in t
he eye and on
the way to dal
e hollow
I was floatin'
like a butter
fly then I got
stung by a be
e
(Lick 3)
Had to squeeze
the mustard u
ncle Vinnie sa
id wow then I
saw the lights
flash and my
heart sank dow
n
then a man rol
led up with a
real nice lean
and I rolled
down the windo
w and he smell
ed my weed
he said I’m of
ficer Looper t
he Tennessee S
tate 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 o
ut under my ma
gnifying glass
,
he made me wat
ch his fingers
and touch my
nose then he m
ade me count t
o thirty but t
hen he let me
go
made my day
I
reckon it was
a little catc
h and release
(Lick 4)
So that there’
s my story and
I want you to
know, if your
goina go fish
ing better tak
er slow,
better look bo
th ways, and k
eeper in line,
let this be a
lesson to you
and your part
ners in crime
Always watch y
our 6 & 9, don
’t roll throug
h the stop sig
n, you don’t a
lways need to
make the verse
s rhyme
Don’t be mixin
liquor with y
our wine, if y
ou feel so inc
lined to keep
me in mind
And by the way, only break one law..... at a time
(Lick 5)
