Lyrics

[Intro]
E
            E
Yeah, I wish

[Verse 1]
I was a catfish
Swimmin in a deep blue sea
I'd have all you pretty women,
Fishin after me
Fishin after me, yeah
Fishin after me

[Verse 2]
E7               E
  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
                  E7
Come home with you

[Solo 1]
E        E
 Well, I love

[Verse 3]
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

[Interlude]
E7        E
  Well, I love

[Verse 4]
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

[Verse 5]
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, I'll be there
Hangin' round' no more
Hangin' round' no more
Hangin' round' no more
Hangin' round' no more
Hangin' round' no more
                      E
Hangin' round' no more
