I go back thinking of fishing with Grandpa and what it meant to me
I was five and fishing with Grandpa when that lake looked as big as the sea
He said we’re going catching we’re not going fishing, there’s a difference alright
Cause instead of fishin’ and wishin’, we’ll be catchin’ our limit tonight
Yeah, instead of fishin’ and wishin’, we’ll be catchin’ our limit tonight

So we put on our vests, stowed our gear in the boat, and headed out on that lake of a sea
Cause we’re going catchin’, not just fishin’, just my Grandpa and me
Yeah, we’re going catchin’ ,yeah catchin’, on that lake of a sea
Yeah, we’re going catchin’, catchin’, just my Grandpa and me
Yeah we’re going catchin’, just my Grandpa and me

He talked of the lunkers that lived there, and the ones that got away
He said son, I’m not sure they still live here, but we’ll be trying to catch them today
Soon we were catchin’ our limit, the others we had to set free
Instead of fishin’ and wishin’, we were catchin’ just Grandpa and me
Yeah instead of fishin’ and wishin’, we were catchin’ just Grandpa and me
