Jeff Bates - Riverbank lyrics
If there ever was a morning when the fish might bite it would be right now
 Any other time we'd have done had our lines cast out
 Sipping on a jug of momma's sweet iced tea catchin' them old cat
 Why couldn't today be like that?
 I wish this was a riverbank
 Instead of a graveyard
 I wish we were sittin' and fishin'
 And this wouldn't be so hard
 It was my favorite thing that we used to do
 But now we can't
 I wish you were here
 I wish this was a riverbank
 Remember the day when I baited my hook with a chunk of ham
 I got a big bite and he yanked the pole right out of my hands
 You jumped up and you grabbed the net and we both jumped in
 We got wet but we got him
 I wish this was a riverbank
 Instead of a graveyard
 I wish we were sittin' and fishin'Jeff Bates - Riverbank - http://motolyrics.com/jeff-bates/riverbank-lyrics.html
 And this wouldn't be so hard
 It was my favorite thing that we used to do
 But now we can't
 I wish you were here
 I wish this was a riverbank
 I know you wouldn't want me just sittin' around and bein' sad
 You taught me better than that
 So I'm leaving now gonna head on out and try to catch a few
 And while I'm there I'll cast a line for you
 I wish this was a riverbank
 Instead of a graveyard
 I wish we were sittin' and fishin'
 And this wouldn't be so damn hard
 It was my favorite thing that we used to do
 But now we can't
 I wish you were here
 I wish you were here
 I wish you were here
 I wish this was a riverbank
