Mind on Fishin' - Trace Adkins

Well I got up early on this Lord’s day

With the sun peekin' through the curtains

Thought I’d wet a line for a couple good hours

And still make the 10 o’clock sermon

But the sky is blue and the breeze is cool

And they’re bitin' good, not to mention

If I left right now might make it somehow

But I doubt I could pay attention

I’d rather be on the lake with my mind on God

In the middle of His creation

In an old Jon Boat with my Zebco rod

For some private conversation

There might be a few people talkin' bad about me

When they see that I’m a-missin'

But I’d rather be on the lake with my mind on God

Than in church with my mind on fishin'

Well I like that preacher and I love how it feels

When he really gets to throwin' down

But I’d rather do my talkin' with the man upstairs

When there’s nobody else around

If I was there right now I’d be thinkin' 'bout

Which lure I was gonna cast

And he don’t need another fool sittin' in that pew

Dreamin' 'bout a ten pound bass

I’d rather be on the lake with my mind on God

In the middle of His creation

In an old Jon Boat with my Zebco rod

For some private conversation

There might be a few people talkin' bad about me

When they see that I’m a-missin'

But I’d rather be on the lake with my mind on God

Than in church with my mind on fishin'

With my thoughts a-driftin'

I ain’t even listenin'

While it all goes right over my head

I’d rather be on the lake with my mind on God

In the middle of His creation

In an old Jon Boat with my Zebco rod

For some private conversation

There might be a few people talkin' bad about me

When they see that I’m a-missin'

But I’d rather be on the lake with my mind on God

Than in church with my mind on fishin'

I’d rather be on the lake with my mind on God

Than in church with my mind on fishin'

With my mind on fishin'
