Centrville Bait and Tackle

I recorded this song a few years ago on this not so great recorder. I put it on You Tube for a laugh. Saw this challenge and thought I would participate, even though it is an older poem/song. It’s a song about my dads baitshop he used to have, we used to have all night card games quite often, but for sure always the night before the opening day of trout season which is really popular where I am from, which is western PA. Well I hope you like it anyways it’s just a little story about me and my old dog waitin for the card game. Thanks for listening, if you can make it though the whole song. :)

Lyrics

Sittin around dads place, waiting for the card game, scraping little resin

from my pipe.

I’m kind feeling lucky, hey think that I am due, I hope that lady luck’s

with me tonight.

My dog is at my left side, bowl is in my right hand, I think that I need to

find a light.

But my light is in my other hand, think I’ll take another hit, I hope that

lady luck’s with me tonight.

Well I look out the window, and what do I see, some gorgeous girl

walking down the street. 

Think I should go talk to her, hey man she’s kinda cute, she’s the type of

chic I wanna meet.

But I just seen my dream girl, just a couple minutes ago and I think

she’s the prettiest of all.

I’d do anything to meet her, walk a hundred miles or so, I think that I

would even crawl.

Crawl on my hands and knees, give me your love well wont you please,

when I see you I just melt to the floor,

So why don’t we go hand out, hey lets go have some fun, then we can

go home and lock the door.
