Biografía:
Jeff Bates doesn’t cherry pick his life for the high spots. Whether he’s writing or singing a song, he’s always emotionally honest. You heard that quality in such of his RCA Records hits as “The Love Song,” “Rainbow Man,” “One Second Chance,” “I Wanna Make You Cry” and “Long Slow Kisses.”
Now comes the compelling CD, Jeff Bates, the singer’s debut collection for the Black River Music Group. Jeff’s was the guiding hand in 10 of the album’s 13 songs.

[Verse]
D
If there was ever a morning when the fish might bite,
G
it'd be right now
D G
Any other time we'd done had our lines cast out
Bm A
Sippin? on a jug of mama's sweet iced tea
G D/F#
Catchin? them 'ol cats
Em A
Why couldn't today be like that?
[Chorus]
D
I wish this was a riverbank
G
Instead of a graveyard
D
I wish we were sittin? and fishin?
G
and this wouldn't be so hard
Bm A
It was my favorite thing that we used to do,
G D/F# Em
but now we can't; I wish you were here

Remember the day when I baited my hook with a chunk of ham
D G
