Sorry baby, I've been drinkin'

Was up all night, I ain't been thinkin'

'Bout when I'd be comin' home and left you all alone

You're callin' tellin' me I've got things to do

Floatin' on the Texas Bay and that's all that I can say

Sorry baby, I'll be fishin'

I've got this big ol' Haynie boat

And I need somewhere to float

Sorry baby, I'll be fishin'
