A Good Story

I was fishing down the road with my buddy, Tank

He reeled him in a bass that he caught off the bank

It wasn't real big so he threw it on back

We headed on home cause barely caught jack

Couple hours later heard him telling the guys

How he's reeled him in a fish that could've won first prize

He caught so many that his pole got broke

Had listen to him poppin' off and blowin' that smoke

Had 'em all going he was baskin' in the glory

Cause you never let the facts ruin a good story

Some people make it up as you go along

Yeah they pour it on thick, they lay it on strong

You add a little polish so it never gets boring

No you Never let the facts ruin a good story

Carp swears he used a wedge to hit a hole in one

Skip's been on a diet making Burger King runs

Holly's hiding oreos under his seat

You gotta tweak the information before it hits the street

Got to keep it all away from the judge and the jury

No you never let the facts ruin a good story

Well I never missed a 10-point during rut

And I made it every time I had an eagle putt

Momma tell their youngins not to tell a lie

Every know and then ya stretch the truth sometimes
