[@bridgetkintz72]

I'm 50. My dad's favorite singer. He almost looked like him. Lost my dad 19 years ago due to cancer. He would of been 78. Miss you dad. This song's to you. 🤗

One of my favorite songs

[@karencooley6723]

I saw Ray Stevens in Pascagoula, Mississippi, at Ingalls Shipbuilding’s 50th Anniversary. He sang his song “Mississippi Squirrel Revival” at the ole Baptist Church in Pascagoula, which is where my oldest daughter got married.

[@jackiejermeay6568]

My dad had the Ray Stevens DVD collection. Wow what laughs we had. Ray is a comic genuess😊

[@alexthompson9516]

I don't remember this one, but it's classic Ray. The rhythm of the verses is always the same in every song and then he always has a catchy chorus to go with it.

[@movieman104]

ray is still funny after all these years

[@dennispalmer5543]

I sincerely agree with you “moviieman104.”

We ain't that old. This came out almost 25 years ago. Ray been releasing songs since the early 60s. I wish we could get some new stuff but I don't want him to pull a Mel McDaniels on us and work himself to death. I remember seeing Mel at the Armory during his heydey and then later in life I felt bad even though I still loved his music.

[@annabellethepitty]

Once in the navy, while stationed on the USS George Washington while she was home ported in yokosuka japan ( a long way from home for a country boy from rural alabama) a friend of mine and i took the ferry to sarushima island (monkey island) to do some fishing, well we decided it would be a good idea to buy a bottle of this deceptively tasteless (literally) drink called shochu. We also filled up a backpack with chu-hai cans (shochu and soda) and proceeded to get too drunk to bait a hook. Good times, bad sunburn, but good times none the less.

[@Maisie1969]

When I was a kid, back in the 60s, the adults were drinking. They lost a boat in the water. Nearly the pickup also.

[@infowazz]

My friend invited me out to his house to hang out and go fishing. It was an hour away and he didn't live there that much. He planned to move there but didn't. Anyways i treated it like a vacation and brought some beer. When we went fishing i brought the beer. Well i guess he wasn't much of a drinker. He didn't really mind but it became awkward as i apparently was sipping beer all day long smh. I didn't get drunk. It just felt like vacation for me :) After that i reduced my consumption. It was becoming too big of a habit. Your brain plays a trick on you where u think drinking makes everything more fun when its actually the other way around. You can appreciate the finer things when u aren't numbed out from alcohol.

[@doughesson]

Too drunk to fish is a myth.

[@raYrefiedAire]

Two guys are fishing in a boat a bottle floats by, fisherman snags the bottle and uncorks it out comes a genie and grants one wish to the both of them. Full of doubt the fisherman who snagged the bottle exclaims "turn this lake into 🍻 beer" viola they look down and the whole lake is a pale lager... The other fishermen turns to him and says "now why did you go and do that 😮now we got to pee in the boat"

[@raYrefiedAire]

🎉Raybo you caught one😂I thought I was the oldest on record being called that '84, it was an insult because we didn't have cargo pants in the 80's and I wore BDU's... Sometimes highschool sticks with you for life...

[@jorynickila7760]

I'm going to ask the obvious question that nobody else asked. Other than America! Why do you have a shotgun in the boat? And where are you fishing that you would need a shotgun in your boat? These are things that us humble fishermen would like to know.😅
