Gone Fishin

Yesterday I thought I would go fishing  
Who knew Old man Winter would show up too
I didn't know what I was missing
Out there on that lake, it felt like below zero

I thought I would have some fun 
I was cold to the bone and I craved the sun
Next time I need to contact the weatherman
He'd warn me not to go out in tank top and shorts
