Catfish Blues - Robert Petway |
Well, I laid down, down last night |
Well, I tried to take my rest |
Notion struck me last night, babe |
I b’lieve I take your stroll out, h’out west |
Take your stroll out, h’out west |
Take your stroll out, h’out west |
Take a stroll out west |
Take a stroll out west |
Well, if I were a catfish, mama |
I says, swimmin' deep down in the blue sea |
Have these girls now, sweet mama |
Settin' out, settin' out hooks for po' me |
Settin' out hooks for-h'or me |
Settin' out hooks for-h'or me |
Settin' down hook for me |
Settin' down hook for me |
Settin' down hook for me |
Well, I went down, yes! |
Down to the church house, yes! |
Well, I was called on me to pray |
Fell on my knees, now |
Mama, I didn’t know one |
Not a word to-who say |
Not a word to-who say |
Not a word to-who |
Not a word to-who |
Not a word to say |
Not a word to say |
Not a word to say |
(guitar) |
'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 if my baby, my baby, do she think of |
Little old thing, on po' me |
Little old thing, on po' me |
Little old thing, on po' me |
Little old thing for me |
Little old thing for me |
H’oh, little thing for me. |
