Cricket on a hook, hook on a line, line on a Zebco 335
Koozie on a beer, beer on ice
working on a buzz, and waiting on a bite
When the world's on the rocks, that’s alright
the fish are too, so I'll be fine
With a cricket on a hook, hook on a line
and nothing else on my mind

When I turn on the news, I turn it back off
Fighting overseas, and fighting here at home
So I go where I always go
Find a tackle box and a worn-out pole
Whether it's a bank or my best friend’s boat
I reel one in and let it all go

With a cricket on a hook
hook on a line, line on a Zebco 335
Koozie on a beer, beer on ice
working on a buzz, and waiting on a bite
When the world's on the rocks, that's alright
the fish are too, so I'll be fine
With a cricket on a hook, hook on a line
and nothing else on my mind

It's like every day there's a fire or a flood
Same talking heads, the same rerun
Preacherman says that the Lord's coming back
And if He does, he knows where I'm at

With a cricket on a hook
hook on a line, line on a Zebco 335
Koozie on a beer, beer on ice
working on a buzz, and waiting on a bite
When the world’s on the rocks, that’s alright
the fish are too, so I'll be fine
With a cricket on a hook, hook on a line
and nothing else on my mind, yep

Cricket on a hook, hook on a line, line on a Zebco 335
Koozie on a beer, beer on ice
working on a buzz, and waiting on a bite
When the world’s on the rocks, that's alright
the fish are too, so I'll be fine
With a cricket on a hook, hook on a line
and nothing else on my mind
Nothing else on my mind, that's right
