I feel you down there pecking my bait
sitting up here I patiently wait
giving you chances left and right
hoping that now,you're ready to bite
tighten up all of my slack
set the hook hard,power it didn't lack
reeling and cranking till you come to the top
hear you moving in the livewell till I finally stop
I put you in a bucket and leave the dock
you sit there curled up,ready to rock
swishing and swirling in that shallow pale
trying to escape to no prevail
sharpen my knife and strip your meat
into the fryer as a tasty treat.
