Catfish Blues Lyrics - Singles - Lightnin' Hopkins

You know I wished I was a catfish 

Swimming in that deep blue sea 

I'd have all the good looking women there boy 

Fishing after me 

Fishing after me 

Ooh ooh... 

I went down to my baby's house 

She said, Lightnin', come on in 

Ain't nobody here with me good Lord 

You know I'm your friend

You know I went down to my baby's house 

Lord I sat down on them steps 

She said, Come on in this house Lightnin', 

Husband just now left 

My husband just now left 

Sho nuff I'm by myself 

He just now left 

You know I went down to the river 

Started jump overboard and drown 

I thought about that little mama, turned around 

I went walking back to town 

Back to town 

Back to town 

Sho nuff, back to town

You know I wish I was a catfish 

Swimming, Lord in that deep blue sea 

I'd have all the good looking womens 

Fishing after me 

Fishing after me 

Sho nuff 

Ain't lying 

Mmm mmmm
