Lyrics
- Well I wish I was a catfish,
- Swimming in the deep blue sea.
- All you pretty womens,
- Fishing after me,
- Fishing after me.
- Well, I went down to my baby's house,
- And I sat down on the steps.
- She said, "Come on in and have me,
- My old man just left,
- Just now left".
- Well, there's two trains a runnin',
- And there's not one, goin' my way.
- One runs at midnight,
- Other just for day.
- Other just for day.
- Other just for day.
- Other just for day.
- Other just for day.
- Hey..........
- Well, she's long,
- And she's so tall,
- Well, she shakes,
- Like a willow tree.
- They say she's no good,
- She's alright with me.
- Right with me.
- Right with me.
- Right with me.
- Right with me.
- Well I wish I was a catfish,
- Swimming in the deep blue sea.
- All you pretty women,
- Swimmin' after me,
- Swimmin' after me.
- I wish I was your catfish.
