Bubba Jones

[Verse 1]

Bubba Jones was a good 'ole boy

Lived back in the woods

Drove a 4-wheel drive pickup

Kept it running good

[Verse 2]

Had a little 'ole 5-horse Mercury

The thing was bad to smoke

Spent his spare time fishing

In a 10-foot aluminum boat

[Bridge]

Cause there was a lot of money to be had

For the man who caught the world record large-mouth bass

[Verse 3]

Bubba had a dream one night

Everything seemed surreal

He caught a bass that weighed 25 pounds

On a Zebco spinning reel

He was getting anxious

But he waited till the moon was right

He loaded up his truck and boat

Headed out before daylight

[Bridge]

He stopped for bologna and crackers, and a little gas

And he was off to catch a world record large-mouth bass

[Verse 4]

He had a small fortune in plastic worms, auto fishing lures

He's throwing them hard, and throwing them long

Nothing was doin' no good

Then he looked inside his tackle box

Seen a lure his grandpa made

He tied it on and he let it go

Over in a cyprus shade

[Bridge]

He let it sit real still, wiggled it kinda slow

Then it seemed like the whole lake exploded

And it shook him down to his toes

Bubba said mmm..

Believe I got something here that might last

It just might be the world record large-mouth bass

[Verse 5]

But he knew he was in trouble

Knew it was out of hand

When it almost jerked him out of his boat

That's when he swallowed his Redman

And that 'ole bass came up on top of the water

Started dancing his tail

And it sounded something like

Bubba, Bubba, Bubba, Bubba, Bubba

[Verse 6]

Well it broke his line and blew his mind

Then he started to shake

But he finally got ahold of himself

Had a little Gatorade

Bubba was down and out, but he had class

When he shook his fist and said

I'll be back for the world record large-mouth bass

[Outro]

Bubba, Bubba, Bubba, Bubba, Bubba
