Sittin’ dFown by the water, Feverything’s fine. FCatfish are nibblin’ on the eFnd of my line.
SFun is ‘a singin’, there’s a Fstar in the sky. MFoon sayin’ “howdy” to a hFawk flyin’ by.
I gBbot my mug ‘o coffee, Bblantern’s on low. FBbireflies are dancein’ top the wateBbr below.
LFistenin’ to the rhythm of an oFld croakin’ frog. PFack of coyotes, yah, they’re Fsingin’ along.
The Ebmore I think about it Mother EbNature’s got soul. SBbwinging with the symphonyBb  
At my old fishin’ hFoleF.F  F  
[Verse 2]
Lookin’ Fback on the memories of the Fyears that flew by. Skinny Fdippin’ with a girlfriend on a Fhot summer night.
She Fsaid she loved me, so we Fgave it a try. GoFt my education ‘neath the Fstars in the sky.
She’d liBbe to her daddy ‘bout Bbwhere she would go, she’d Bbmeet me halfway down on an old Bbgravel road.
We’d Fwalk to the water, Fsit on a log. TFalk about our future, then one Fday she was gone.
ShEbe moved away and took a Ebpiece of my soul. I lBbearned about love and heaBbrtache
At my old fishin’ hoFle.F  
[Chorus 1]
It’s where I taEblked to the moon, I prBbayed for love. I’ve cFussed up a storm when liFfe got rough.
ThEbis place has always bBbeen a good friend to Fme.F  
SoEbme need substance to Bbescape but I jFust get my pole and head Fdown to the lake.
Cuz noGthin’ gets me higher than a cGool, calm, midnight brCeeze.C
