Sally Cantrell worked behind the bar Had a wavin' rebel flag tattooed on her arm She called everybody honey That came walkin' through her door
She was known for puttin' things just the way they were She called 'em like she saw 'em without smoothin' fur When it comes to woman torubles Nobody said it better than her no sir
If the fish ain't bitin' If the fish ain't bitin' Well now don't go gettin' shook Honey take a look What kinda bait you got on the hook
With that low smokey voice I can she her Lord Breakin' up fights over Chevys and Fords With that motherly broomstick logic No man can ignore
But on the subject of love she gave good advice And everybody listened without thinkin' twice And she swore when she said it Without blinkin' an eye oh my
If the fish ain't bitin' If the fish ain't bitin' Well now don't go gettin' shook Honey take a look What kinda bait you got on the hook
So if you're down on your luck and all you can say is You should've seen the one I let get away Well maybe all you need is a change in your strategy yes indeed
If the fish ain't bitin' If the fish ain't bitin' Well now don't go gettin' shook Honey take a look What kinda bait you got on the hook
