Story Behind The Song
Came up with the idea to write a fun summer song. I can't think of anyone I know who has never gone tubin' down a river.....and with the young crowd it is a BIG party!
Song Description
Group of friends gets together to spend a day floating down a river on tubes. Of course they have provisions along to take with them on their journey. And the provisions always get their own tube.

Lyrics
TUBIN'
© 2012
R.VanVooren / J.Brehmer
Early mornin' weekend, it's 80 out at 8
Got a half a dozen buddies, and half of them got dates
Ice is in the coolers, beer is getting' cold
Bobby's feelin' lucky cuz he brought the coppertone
Flip flops, shimmy offs, vodka lemonade
Air is in the tires, and a bus is on the way
Tubin'..... down a lazy river movin'.....
Cuz' we've got all day, just to play
Floatin' all our blues away,....groovin'
We were tubin'
Dropped off at Deacons point, underneath the bridge
Buffets on the radio, and Bobby just fell in
Got the coolers floatin', we're all set to go
You could tell by Janie's bobbers that the water's pretty cold
Squirt guns, having fun, pass the lemonade
6 hours in the sun, man, we got it made
CHORUS
4 miles down, we'll hit the sandbar
Stock the coolers up, wave goodbye to the lifeguard
CHORUS
