Catfish Blues Songtext
von Robert Petway

Well, I laid down
Down last night
Well, I tried to take my rest
Notion struck me last night, babe

I believe I take a stroll out, out west
Take a stroll out, out west
Take a stroll out, out west
Take a stroll out west
Take a stroll out west

What if I were a catfish, mama?
I said, swimmin′ deep down in, deep blue sea
Have these girls now, sweet mama, settin' out

Settin′ out hooks for, for me
Settin' out hook for, for me
Settin' out hook for, for me
Settin′ out hook for me
Settin′ out hook for me
Settin' out hook for me


Well, I went down, yeah, down to the church house, yes
Well, I called on me to pray
Fell on my knees, now mama, I didn′t know, Lord

Not a word to, to say
Not a word to, to say
Not a word to
Not a word to
Not a word to say
Not a word to say
Not a word to say

Play 'em, man, play ′em a long time

I'm gonna write, write me a letter, baby
I′m gonna write it just to see
See my babe, my baby who she's thinkin' of

Little ol′ thing on, on me
Little ol′ thing on, on me
Little ol' thing on, on me
Little ol′ thing on, on me
Little ol' thing on me
Oh little thing on me
