A five hour drive from anything
The trip could make you cry
There is a lake with a funny shape
On the shore our cabin lies
Oh Big Bladder!
The lake named after pee
It’s pretty far to the bathroom
Aptly named? We shall see…
You know Old Bev can pinch the penny
They say she makes it bleed
No towels clean or firewood
Her bills cause bankruptcy
Oh Big Bladder!
The lake we come to see
No jerks no kids no water skis
She’s known for priva-cee!
A midnight drive to find the kids
May have been ill-advised
Now we’re all lost in the woods
If I weren’t drunk I’d probably cry
Oh Big Bladder!
The lake she is lovely
For one more pontoon happy hour
I’d gladly pay a fee
Late at night they finally came
It was a dark and winding road
Four hour flight a three hour drive
Thanks for giving it a go
Oh Big Bladder!
The lake it waits for thee
Here they come from Cal-li-forn-i-a
DanJo for us to see!
