[Verse]
Mud up to my knees my boots won't stay
Fishing line tangled in a weedy ballet
No boat no paddle just me and the shore
Dreaming of fish fries galore
[Chorus]
Don’t let it go don’t let it slide
Hold that rod like it’s your pride
Big fish big dreams in a small pond today
This one ain’t getting away
[Verse 2]
Cast my line like a cowboy’s rope
Hook set deep now I'm dancing with hope
Reel screams louder than a banshee cry
Sweat in my eyes can't let this one fly
[Prechorus]
It’s a tug of war a test of will
That fish fights harder still
[Chorus]
Don’t let it go don’t let it slide
Hold that rod like it’s your pride
Big fish big dreams in a small pond today
This one ain’t getting away
[Bridge]
Arms like noodles heart about to burst
This fish is sly it’s throwing curves
Slipping and sliding I almost fell
But I’ve got a grip like a southern belle
