Lyrics

They say global warming is a fact and a bummer
So I'm floating the river in a hot Texas summer
Great blue heron flashing his bright dagger beak
Alligator watching him, big bumpy sneak

It’s a cold Texas river
Bottom made of stone
When you're floating the river
You ain't ever alone
When you're floating the river
You ain't ever alone

Kingfisher shooting through the trees on a mission
He’s looking for some kingfisher love, or he's fishing
Big blue cat looking up from his hole,
He ain't seen the sun, since the great dust bowl

(Chorus)

Cottonmouth hanging from a cottonwood tree
He’s hunting for supper, why's he looking at me
Old rancher Ray, he's got a gun and a hat
He don't like science, or river rats

(Chorus).
