Hey, pack the cooler and load the truck (woo!) Got the cousins
in the back and we're testing our luck On a three-mile dirt
road kicking up clay
Down to the shoreline of the lake today
That old screen door let out a mighty slam (whack!) Cousin Tommy's
already hooking a bluegill jam With a red-and-white bobber dancing on the
blue No sunscreen on,
yeah we're burning right through
Floating on a pontoon,
July in Minnesota Drinking sweet pop,
we don't care about a quota Just a bunch of wild cousins
under the sun Having ten times more than our share of the
fun
Yeah, we're floating, drifting,
casting a line (haha!) On a golden,
carefree summer of mine
Uncle Bobby's telling lies about the bass he missed (sure,
Bob!) While the radio is singing through a static mist We got
bait in our hair,
sunburn on our knees But we're laughing like bandits in the lakeside
breeze
Floating on a pontoon,
July in Minnesota Drinking sweet pop,
we don't care about a quota Just a bunch of wild cousins
under the sun Having ten times more than our share of the
fun
Yeah, we're floating, drifting,
casting a line (woohoo!) On a golden,
carefree summer of mine
And when the stars pop out and the bugs start to bite
(bzzzt) We'll head back to the cabin in the warm porch light
But we'll still hear the water splashing on the wood Man,
I'd stay right here forever if I could
Yeah, that Minnesota water
(splasg!) July is gone but we're getting hotter
