I backed my Chevrolet out the driveway straight to the station

Filled it up with gas, grabbed a bag of ice, a Mountain Dew and a Slim Jim

Oh, and a couple of ice cold beers too

And I swung a little gravel rock, burnin' out that parking lot

Found a long dirt road and the perfect river spot

And broke out them beach chains

And we sat down right there and I pulled out my guitar

Started strumming on it

I wrote a song 'bout absolutely nothing

With my toes tapping in the sand

She sang along, just me and my baby humming

Nothing, nothing like just doing

Absolutely nothing

Absolutely nothing

While she was skippin' rocks, grabbed my seat

And I was poppin' tops and I popped a string

Yeah man that sun must've been a hundred degrees

Oh but we had a cold river at our feet, I'm in a cool cool breeze

We were without our eyes closed

Neither one of us was sayin' a word

Nah, we weren't sayin' a word, we were just a-touchin' toes

Every now and then, she gave me a smile

It was beer thirty all day long, all day long

I wrote a song 'bout absolutely nothing

With my toes tapping in the sand

She sang along, just me and my baby humming

Nothing, nothing like just doing

Absolutely nothing

Absolutely nothing

I wrote a song 'bout absolutely nothing

Singin' nah nah nah nah nah nah nah

She sang along, just me and my baby humming

Nothing, nothing like just doing

Absolutely nothing

Absolutely nothing

Absolutely nothing

Absolutely nothing
