Lyrics River Rat – The LACs
Country as a coon skin cap
Know the river like the back of my hand with no map
Catch you fishing in my honey hole, ’bout to get slapped
Boy, ya better start back tracking that bass track
Got me talking like
Hell yeah, it’s about that time
Gotta fresh caught brim on a catfish line
‘Bout to drop my prop on a 9.9
I’ma flat bottom jon boat, slip n’ slidin’
See I’m swinging this b!tch
Around the Ben so if you’re fishing
Better get what you call
And reel it in l’m on a mission
Bout to catch a big 50 pound flathead
Pull up to the gut shed
Throw it on the table like yup yup
Ain’t nothing like a sunset setting
On a homemade dock, daddy built in 97
It’s the closest thing to heaven
So I know I’m gonna go
See rolling in my golden Jon boat
Some folks are California boogie boarding beach bums
Some like a pool up in the back yard when the spring comes
Some people take it to the lake and get to making a splash
Not me, you know why, ’cause I.. I’m a river rat
Rat rat rat rat rat rat..
I’m a river rat rat rat rat rat..
Got get to it baby, yeah, you up at the crack
Let’s get up all the poles throw ’em up in the back
If you a caffeine fiend get a cup n’ a half
If you wake n’ bake man hit that puff n the pass
Got them lines all turnt and we workin ’em
Channel cat white perch yeah we merkin’ them
Game warden said ew you boys hurting them
Pontoon full of dimes and they twerkin ’em
Party on the bank get them boats tied up
Sang a little hank and got them fish fried up
Drank a little drank if not light up
Ole Silverado sank man it’s just my luck
Got 13 girls in the back of my truck
Hit swamp road gotta a little night stuck
It was all my fault didn’t hit the right rutt
But I worked it on out musta had the right touch
Some folks are California boogie boarding beach bums
Some like a pool up in the back yard when the spring comes
Some people take it to the lake and get to making a splash
Not me, you know why, ’cause I.. I’m a river rat
Rat rat rat rat rat rat..
I’m gonna need yall to pay attention
Class is in section
Do exactly what I do right here
Yall ready, let’s go
Now slide to the left, two back to the right
Kick turn stomp that thing out right
Now one to the right, two back to the left
Shake it, shake it, shake it, but don’t hurt yourself
Jump to the front put that thing in drive
Like a big truck driver just swing it real wide
Let’s step to the back put it in reverse
Turn it on around while you make it work
Now work work work work
Turn it on around while you make it work
Work work work work
Let’s step to the back put it in reverse
Turn it on around while you make it work
Work work work work
Now one to the right, two back to the left
Shake it, shake it, shake it, but don’t hurt yourself
Some folks are California boogie boarding beach bums
Some like a pool up in the back yard when the spring comes
Some people take it to the lake and get to making a splash
Not me, you know why, ’cause I.. I’m a river rat
Rat rat rat rat rat rat..
I’m a river rat rat rat rat rat…
