00:00Down at Harleys Creek where the waters flow
00:03Sitting on my stool, taking it slow
00:06Got my hand lying, tossed, waiting for a bite
00:09But the trees overhead ain't treating me right
00:11Quarter ounce sinker caught up in the leaves
00:14Pulled the line back tight like a string on my sleeves
00:17Four the fish were playing hard to see
00:19But that branch had a different plan for me
00:22Oh, crocodile blues, they got me running scared
00:25Lying in the mud, don't lie, think fair
00:27Pain shot me down, didn't see it
00:29Coming it on, hit me right there
00:33Felt like a cannonball
00:35I was singing, the tension was high
00:38Then the band, the branch snapped, can't believe my eye
00:41The singing could flew back like a devil and fly
00:43Called me right where the sun don't shine
00:46Oh, what a sight, lying there in silence
00:48Couldn't even scream, caught in a moment
00:51Like a bad dream

01:02Hit me right there
01:04Felt like a cannonball
01:07I would never pass, I could barely breathe
01:15Fearin' every sound, just wanna believe
01:18Then I opened my eyes, what did I see?
01:21A crocodile skull staring back at me
01:24Thought I was lush, thought I'd need my head
01:26But look at a twist, like a true old friend
01:29With pain in my heart, the mud on my face
01:32I laughed at the fortune of this wild chase
