Floatin’ This Creek Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Put in this mornin' at first light
Had a biscuit on my way down
I was sittin' there waitin' on the first bite
From a rainbow or a brown
Anchor down at the bridge, gonna try a new midge
There was traffic flyin' by
Taillights glowin' red, thirty feet overhead
But it felt like a thousand miles

[Chorus]
I'm just floatin' this creek and takin' it slow
Tryna catch somethin' big, sip somethin' cold
I'd be a liar if I said I had a plan today
'Cept watch these banks roll by, take it on in
Don't get too deep, don't forget where I been
Nothin' but time to see where it takes me
Floatin' this creek

[Verse 2]
That rush hour traffic kinda slowed down
'Bout the time that the fish did too
Just me and this ol' green boat now
Nothin' but nothin' to do
So I broke out a cold one, called my buddies, told 'em
Slippеd up and caught a state record
That's a little whitе lie, he was good eatin' size
But I like my story better
[Chorus]
I'm just floatin' this creek and takin' it slow
Tryna catch somethin' big and sip somethin' cold
I'd be a liar if I said I had a plan today
'Cept watch these banks roll by, take it all in
Don't get too deep, don't forget where I been
Nothin' but time to see where it takes me
Yeah, I'm just floatin' this creek

[Bridge]
Put my boat back on the trailer, eased out on the blacktop
Kinda sucks but I gotta make a dollar
I'm feeling pretty good, so I won't bitch
'Cause in the morning when I'm diggin' that ditch

[Chorus]
I'll be floatin' this creek and taking it slow
Tryna catch somethin' big and sip somethin' cold
I'd be a liar if I said I had a plan today
'Cept watch these banks roll by, take it all in
Don't get too deep, don't forget where I been
Nothin' but time to see where it takes me
Floatin' this creek
Floatin' this creek

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
