I find a perfect spot Some old dead trees Back in a canyon where you cain't feel no breeze I tie my lure I make my cast It's breakfast time you five pound bass That old sun is rising That water is clear I watch my lure as it's flying through the air I see a ripple...... I hear a splash..... Lord have mercy, It's a five pound bass.. Spoken: That's a five pound bass son... Aw it's big as a god damned baby... --PART-BOUNDARY=.19505021353.ZM26259.efficient2-- www.TAB6.com
