  • I back this hitch up into the water
    Untie all the cables and rope
    Step onto the AstroTurf
    Get yourself a Koozie
    Let's go

    Who said anything about skiin'?
    Floatin' is all I wanna do
    You can climb the ladder
    Just don't rock the boat while I barbeque

    On the pontoon
    Makin' waves and catchin' rays up on the roof
    Jumpin' out the back, don't act like you don't want to
    Party in slow motion
    Out here in the open
    Mm, motorboatin'

    (Hoo hoo hoo)

    Reach your hand down into the cooler
    Don't drink it if the mountains aren't blue
    Try to keep it steady as you recline on your black inner tube

    Pontoon
    Makin' waves and catchin' rays up on the roof
    Jumpin' out the back, don't act like you don't want to
    Party in slow motion
    Out here in the open
    Mm, motorboatin'

    (Hoo hoo hoo)
    (Hoo hoo hoo)

    Five mile an hour with aluminum sides
    Wood panelin' with a water slide
    Can't beat the heat, so let's take a ride

    On the pontoon
    Makin' waves and catchin' rays up on the roof
    Jumpin' out the back, don't act like you don't want to
    Party in slow motion
    I'm out here in the open
    Mm, motorboatin'

    On the pontoon
    (Hoo hoo hoo)
    On the pontoon
    (Hoo hoo hoo)

    I back this hitch out into the water
    On the pontoon

    (Hoo hoo hoo)

  • Cb from CaLittle Big Town's song Pontoon is a track mix disaster for the bass guitar track! It fades in and out of existence at the start of the song, blurps in real quick, then fades till a little bit later in the song.
  • Camille from Toronto, OhJune, 2012. I just saw this video on TV today and can tell it's gonna be a BIG hit for a group that well deserves it. They have a fabulous sound and the video is perfection. Way to go!
