Catfish

I went fishin' in the early morning light
Put my line in the water, and everything seemed right
But a catfish was jumpin', and laughin' at me
He said, "there's no way in this world, no way you'll ever catch me

And I said, "Catfish, take that hook. Don't you wanna be cooked today?"
Yea I said, "Catfish, take that hook.  Don't you wanna be cooked today?"
And he said, "There's no way in this world, no way you'll ever catch me, 'cause I will just swim away, and there's no way you'll ever catch me.

If I were a catfish, bottom of the river, wouldn't have to worry, if it were night or day.
I said, "if I were a catfish, bottom of the river, wouldn't have to worry, if it were night or day."
There'd be no way in this world, no way you'd ever catch me, 'cause I would just swim away, and there's no way you'd ever catch me.

If I were a catfish, bottom of the river, think just maybe, I'd make a good fellet.
I said, "if I were a catfish, bottom of the river, think just maybe, I'd make a good fellet."
But there'd be no way in this world, no way you'd ever catch me, 'cause I would just swim away, and there'd be no way you'd ever catch me.
