Big Jack Johnson - Catfish Blues

Текст песни

Well if I was a catfish,
Swimming in da deep blue sea
I’d have a, all you big legged women,
Fish’n after me,
Fish’n after me,
Oil Man,
Oh yes I will, oh yes I will
Well I went, to my baby house
And I sat down on her step
She said, come on in Mr. Big Jack
Come in get that love,
Come in get that love
Come in get that love,
Lord my husband’s, get my love
Look at this right here
I put a bell on a buzzer
And you I…, I found it troll’n
I got a key to the highway,
But I got to go
I got her go
Gotta let her go-ooo
Lord I gotta let her go
Lord I gotta let this big legged woman go
Well, there’s two…,
Two trains run’n
Well never going my way
There’s one run at midnight
One leaves just for a day
One leaves just for a day
One leaves just for a day
That’s the train, that took baby away
That’s the train, that took baby away
Baby please don’t go,
Baby please don’t go,
BABY PLEASE DON’T GO!
I’ll beg you all night long,
I got you all night long,
I got my shackles on,
I got my shackles ON,
I got my shak’r, got my shak’r, got my shak’r, got my shak’r,
I got my shakers on…, baby
I got my shakers on
Baby please don’t go
