Catfish

0

Well i wish
I was a catfish
Swimmin in a oh, deep, blue sea
I would have all you good lookin women
Fishin, fishin after me
Sure 'nough, a-after me
Sure 'nough, a-after me
Oh 'nough, oh 'nough, sure 'nough

I went to my baby's house
And I sit down oh, on her steps
She said, "Now, come on in now, Muddy
You know, my husband just now left
Sure 'nough, he just now left
Sure 'nough, he just now left"
Sure 'nough, oh well, oh well

Well, my mother told my father
Just before hmmm, I was born
"I got a boy child's comin
He's gonna be, he's gonna be a rollin stone
Sure 'nough, he's a rollin stone
Sure 'nough, he's a rollin stone"
Oh well he's a, oh well he's a, oh well he's a

Well, I feel, yes I feel
Feel that I could lay down oh, time ain't long
I'm gonna catch the first thing smokin
Back, back down the road I'm goin
Back down the road I'm goin
Back down the road I'm goin
Sure 'nough back, sure 'nough back
