Tracklist

3.	Catfish Blues	4:12

Lyrics

Said if I were the Catfish
Swimming it on
Deep blue sea
I’d have all the women

Swimmin’ after me
Swimmin’ after me

Said I love
You black woman
And I love
Your husband too

Well now the reason I love him
Wanna go home, home with you
Wanna go home, home with you

Said I’m broke
Broke and hungry
I’m dirty
Dirty and raggly too
But if I clean up
Can I go home, Can I go home
Home with you, home with you

I don’t want to be no crappie
I don’t want to be no, no bullfrog
If I can’t be a catfish
I don’t want to be no fish at all
