(Boat taxi driver)
Up here the summer feels even hotter in the rain…
(Come and take me over)
Boat taxi coming... Hear the Island calling my name…
(Going to keep on riding)
Going to keep on riding on riding all day...
(Going to keep on riding)
Going to keep on riding this Moose River wave //

Every time I head back I’m fearing what has changed...
But when I get back I see that there’s so much the same /
That’s why I love it, mang... Got me saying southern slang...
Sipping watered down orange tang in the summer rain //
They say that living up here’s a catch 22…
It’s why I head up the river to catch 22 /
And if I hook one to heavy it’ll catch a 22…
Got no idea what me and K Skratch about to do //
Make em eat the dust that our pick up trucks kick up…
Plus there’s four wheelers ripping up the road /
Bleachers ‘bout to tip… Jistug… We hit em up…
Packs of dogs on the prowl trying to sniff some butts //
The south wind keeps the bugs at bay…
While sun rays shoot down we put the guns away /
There’s nothing flying here to hunt today… We’re just vibin…
Dusty road riding around on the Island //

(Boat taxi driver)
Up here the summer feels even hotter in the rain…
(Come and take me over)
Boat taxi coming... Hear the Island calling my name…
(Going to keep on riding)
Going to keep on riding on riding all day...
(Going to keep on riding)
Going to keep on riding this Moose River wave //

Alright… Stop what you’re doing…
I’ve got some brand new shocks/Shox that I’m about to ruin /
I Shock G’s with my swamp Cree hooping…
I drop geese by the flock Cree shooting //
But today we’ll keep cruising… It’s the off season…
It’s so hot I can swear I see the swamp steaming /
Every morning there’s a fog on the water gleaming…
Come and meet me at the docks for the long weekend /

Every time I head back I’m fearing what has changed...
But when I get back I see that there’s so much the same...
That’s why I love it mang... Got me saying southern slang...
Sipping watered down orange tang //
Every time I head back I’m fearing what has changed...
But then I get back I see that there’s so much the same...
That’s why I love it mang... Got me saying southern slang...
Up here the summers hotter in the pouring rain //

(Boat taxi driver)
Up here the summer feels even hotter in the rain…
(Come and take me over)
Boat taxi coming... Hear the Island calling my name…
(Going to keep on riding)
Going to keep on riding on riding all day...
(Going to keep on riding)
Going to keep on riding this Moose River wave //

Keep riding this… Riding this wave…

Keep riding this… Riding this wave…

Keep riding this… Riding this wave…
