There's a new Trace Adkins song making its way through the American airwaves. I've heard it on the country radio stations in between long sets of Waylon Jennings and Anti Gay Marriage PSAs. It's a little diddy called, " Just Fishin .'" The song itself is simple, not too intelligent, somewhat effective, yet it makes you smile, like George Foreman on the Home Shopping Network. It's about a father going on a fishing trip with his young daughter. She has her pink rod and reel. As they sit out on the boat, she talks about her life. He tells her stories from the past. They learn about one another. They're make memories that last a lifetime. They're having a father/daughter experience that goes deeper than baiting hooks. And the whole time, his wife thinks that they're "just fishin'." Beautiful song. Makes me wish that I had a redneck daughter who enjoys flaying big mouth bass and singing along to old songs about trains, truck
Over-caffeinated and underpaid. Go America. Go Dodgers.
