| You know I wished I was a catfish | |
| Swimmin' in that deep blue sea | |
| I'd have all the good lookin' women there boy | |
| Fishin' after me, fishin' after me, oh | |
| 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 | |
| Show enough, 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 now | |
| Walkin' back to town | |
| Back to town | |
| Back to town | |
| Show enough, back to town | |
| You know, I wish I was a catfish | |
| Swimmin', Lord in that deep blue sea | |
| I'd have all the good lookin' womens | |
| Fishin' after me, fishin' after me | |
| Show enough | |
| Ain't lyin' | |
| Hmm, hmm |
| You know I wished I was a catfish | |
| Swimmin' in that deep blue sea | |
| I' d have all the good lookin' women there boy | |
| Fishin' after me, fishin' after me, oh | |
| I went down to my baby' s house | |
| She said, Lightnin', come on in | |
| Ain' t nobody here with me, good Lord | |
