Lyrics
I Miss Lake Bemidji
With and Evanrude motor and Minn Kota troller, Lowrance fish finder or 2
We push off the dock just before 5 o'clock and go sailing off into the blue
We don't care what size fish that we catch as long as we have one to hold
You see it don't matter because the fish gets bigger every time the story is told
I miss Lake Bemidji and all of my buddies and all of the beer we go through
Chucking big bait making figure eight's with Muskie spinners and lures
Honey I love you and that's not a lie and Muskie guides all tell the truth
So is this the reason why I miss fishing more than I miss you
My friend Mark has a bait shop with minnows and leaches
Night crawlers that glow in the dark
He has crazy friends who live in their boats and say Muskie fishing's an art
He sells al kinds of tackle from WIndels and Ken Katch
And Northland jigs by the score
And he gets my last dollar with a new Hawg Wobbler before I walk out the door.
I miss Lake Bemidji and all of my buddies and all of the beer we go through
Chucking big bait making figure eight's with Muskie spinners and lures
Honey I love you and that's not a lie and Muskie guides all tell the truth
This must be the reason why I miss fishing more than I miss you
This must be the reason why I miss fishing more than I miss you
