You get a line and I'll get a pole honey
You get a line and I'll get a pole babe
You get a line I'll get a pole
We'll go down to the fishing hole
Honey baby mine
I'll be cuttin' my line
I'll be settin' my bait
I'll be kickin' my feet back on Old Hickory Lake
We can make a little love
We can make a little wake
Paddlin' around in the moonlight
On Old Hickory Lake
Save me a sweet kiss when the sun goes down
You'll be my business on this side of town
No need to carry the world on your shoulders
Pull up the anchor baby, call everybody tell 'em don't come over
We can make a little love
We can make a little wake
Paddlin' around in the moonlight
On Old Hickory Lake
They say the river's gonna flood
They say the dam gonna break
But I'll be floating on your love
On Old Hickory Lake
Just you and me baby beneath the stars
I'm lost at sea baby wrapped in your arms
We'll drift away from our cares and our worry
Can't hardly wait to be down in the cuddy where there ain't no hurry
We can make a little love
We can make a little wake
Paddlin' around in the moonlight
On Old Hickory Lake
They say the river's gonna flood
They say the dam gonna break
But I'll be floating on your love
On Old Hickory Lake
Well I'll help you and you help me
Fix a little something for th ekids to eat
A little later on when they're fast asleep
We'll go down to the water and we'll get knee deep
We can make a little love
We can make a little wake
Paddlin' around in the moonlight
On Old Hickory Lake
They say the river's gonna flood
They say the dam gonna break
But I'll be floating on your love
On Old Hickory Lake
