Fishin', Baseball, Boats 'n Beer

(KIT HOLMES)
2007
Music & lyrics by Kit Holmes
All the best things in life: love, a sunny day, fishing, baseball, boats and beer! This song was a Finalist (in the General Category) in the 2007 Austin Songwriter's Group song contest.
Hey darlin', let's go fishin'
The weather's warm and clear
We'll throw some cold ones in the cooler
And bring the radio along to hear
The first pitch of the opener
Man, I love this time of year!
Time for fishin', baseball, boats n' beer
Yeah, darlin' we've got a good thing
You know I'm being sincere
When I say I'm still in love with you
After all these years
Now some folks ask about our secret
I smile when I say, "now listen here...
We love fishin', baseball, boats 'n beer
Baseball's like good lovin'
Full of passion faith and hope
And the patience you learn fishin
Will keep your love afloat
We always share a pint of kindness and things that we hold dear
Things like fishin, baseball, boats 'n beer
Yeah darlin', I remember the first time I met you
That morning on the pier
You were loading up your little skiff
With a cooler and some fishing gear
Singing "Take Me Out to the Ballgame"
I fell in love right then and there
Yeah, with fishin', baseball, boats 'n beer
Baseball's like good lovin'
Full of passion, faith and hope
And the patience you learn fishin' will keep your love afloat
We always share a pint of kindness
and things that we hold dear
Things like fishin', baseball, boats 'n beer
oh, we love
Fishin', baseball, boats 'n beer
