Well, I wish I was a catfish
Swimmin in a oh deep blue sea
I'll have you, pretty women
Fishin' after me
Fishin' after me, yeah
Fishin' after me
Well, I'm broke and I'm hungry
Well, I'm Ragged and I'm dirty too
If I clean up now, tomorrow
Can I come home with you?
Come home with you, yeah
Come home with you
Well, I love
Well, I love my baby
Yeah, she's gone scream and shout
When my train comes rollin' in
And I come walkin' out
Come walkin' out, yeah
Come walkin' out
Well, I love
But I'm leavin' you baby
Yeah, your crying won't make me stay
Well, the more you cry, lil' Momma
Further I'll go away
Further I'll go away
Further I'll go away
And I know, well I know you don't want me
But I wanted you darlin'
You told me so, yeah
When you ain't got a word well, I'll be there
Hangin' round' no more
Hangin' round' no more
Hangin' round' no more
Hangin' round' no more
Hangin' round' no more
Hangin' round' no more
