Prompt / Lyrics
Sun comin’ up over the Great Lake line,
Cooler full of ice, my bro's and a good time.
Got the rods all lined, tackle box packed tight,
Talkin’ big talk ’bout gettin the first bite.
Wind’s pickin’ up but we don’t mind the spray,
Out on Erie, that’s just how we play.
Ain’t nothin’ better than a reel that screams,
When that chrome flash of a stinger cuts through your dreams.
(Chorus)
’Cause it’s the walleye of a lifetime, bendin’ that pole,
Drag singin’ loud, heart losin’ control.
From the bay to the breakers, boy, when that dipsy pops, she fights like sin,
You don’t forget a catch like this again.
Got her in the net, yellin’ “that’s a Hog!”
A Lake Erie legend — the walleye of a lifetime.
(Verse 2)
Couple victory cold ones on the ride back home,
That big girl’s sittin’ on the ice all alone.
Weigh-in crowd gatherin’, jaws droppin’ wide,
“Lord, would you look at the size of that eye!”
The old timers nod, sayin’ “that’s no lie,”
“Son, you’ll chase that high till the day you die.”
I just smile and raise that fish to the sky,
Sayin’ thanks to lake Erie, for this one wild ride.
(Chorus)
Yeah, it’s the walleye of a lifetime, bendin’ that pole,
Drag singin’ loud, heart losin’ control.
From the bay to the breakers, boy, when that dipsy pops, she fights like sin,
You don’t forget a catch like this again.
Got her in the net, bro's yellin’ “that’s a Hog!”
A Lake Erie legend — the walleye of a lifetime.
(Bridge)
Now she’s hangin’ on the wall, in that cedar frame, Ohio State record, proudly with my name,
But every time I see her, I feel that same flame.
Boat rockin’, waves crashin’, just me and my bro's,
If you’ve hooked one, you know that truth.
(Final Chorus)
It was the walleye of a lifetime, one for the tale,
Stinger Hooked in deep, she made that reel wail.
From the big lake waters to the stories we spin,
That’s the kind you only dream of catchin’ again.
Yeah, she’ll live forever in this heart of mine —
That Lake Erie beauty — the walleye of a lifetimeTags
