00:00Well, I was just a young man, 22 years old
00:03Chasing summer dreams, feeling brave and bold, bold
00:09Cruising down the day and treat, sunshine and bright
00:13Water skiing my worries away, what a glorious sight, sight
00:17Sitting on my skis, floating in the sun, out of care in the world
00:22Just a good time to be had, what fun, fun
00:25But little did I know, lurking down below
00:28Saw water crocs waiting, moving real slow
00:31Naive and young, just looking for thrills
00:33I must have looked like dinner with my youthful chills
00:36Oh yeah
00:38The engine roared to life, I was ready to fly
00:45Pulled up out of the water, reaching for the sky, sky
00:50Then I saw a shadow, gliding with ease
00:55A crocodile leaping from the shore, a sight to see, see
00:58Heart racing fast, but I didn't let go
01:02Riding on my skis like a pro, oh what a show, show
01:06I could have cracked a wonder with my sphincter muscle
01:10But little did I know, lurking down below
01:17Saw water crocs waiting, moving real slow
01:20Naive and young, just looking for thrills
01:22I must have looked like dinner with my youthful chills
01:25A little did I know, lurking down below
01:41Salt water crocs waiting, moving real slow
01:47But little did I know, lurking down below
01:53Salt water crocs waiting, moving real slow
01:56Naive and young, just looking for thrills
01:58I must have looked like dinner with my youthful chills
02:01Crazy moments in the sun, dancing on the edge
02:10Nature's rhythm, it drives me to the ledge
02:16With every jump and twist I felt so alive
02:20A wild child spirit nobody could deprive
02:23Up and skiing, I was flying on the sand
02:28Roll my luck with two hands on the brand brand
02:30What an adventure, my heart full of glee
02:33Thankful for that day, just the crocs and me, me
02:35You can't tempt fate without a little thrill
02:38Dane Tree's a beauty and it's giving me a chill chill
02:41A little did I know, lurking down below
02:48Salt water crocs waiting, moving real slow
02:50Naive and young, just looking for thrills
02:53I must have looked like dinner with my youthful chills
02:55Oh yeah
02:58So here's to the rivers where the wild things swim
03:04With memories of that day, I'll never let them dim
03:0622 years young, I danced with fate
03:09On the Dane Tree River, it's never too late
