My boss is on my back, my job’s on the line
Little high on the bills, a little low on the dime
The world’s gone to hell on the five o’clock news
But out on this lake, we got hard times here too
I got some reel problems like some cold beers to crack
Got a hole in my net and an old-fashioned backlash
Yeah, some reel problems like a big ol’ bird’s nest
There’s ten pounds of bass on my seven-pound test
And I’m hung up on a log on the bottom
Yeah, I got myself some reel problems
Some rod and reel problems
My baby just called me, she says we’re through
Said she hates my guts, and her momma does too
Well, I oughta head home now, we could quit all this fighting
But I can’t just leave, son, they just started biting
Got me some reel problems like some cold beers to crack
Got a hole in my net and a good old-fashioned backlash
Yeah, some reel problems like a big ol’ bird’s nest
There’s ten pounds of bass on my seven-pound test
And I’m hung up on the log down on the bottom
Yeah, I got myself some reel problems
Oh, we in trouble, boy
And just when I was about to head in
Well, hold on, I just cut the bait
Guess I got myself some reel problems like some cold beers to crack
Got a hole in my net and an old-fashioned backlash
Yeah, some reel problems like a big ol’ bird’s nest
There’s ten pounds of bass on this seven-pound test
And I’m hung up on a log on the bottom
I got myself some reel problems
Some rod and reel problems
