Catfish John - Johnny Russell[00:00:00]
Written by:Bob Mcdill/Allen Reynolds[00:00:01]
Momma said don't go near that river[00:00:05]
Don't be hanging 'round old catfish John[00:00:12]
Come the morning I'd always be there[00:00:19]
Walking in his footsteps[00:00:25]
In the sweet delta dawn[00:00:27]
Let me dream of another morning[00:00:31]
And a time so long ago[00:00:37]
When the sweet magnolia blossom[00:00:43]
Cotton fields were white as snow[00:00:49]
Catfish John was a river hobo[00:00:54]
Living by the river bed[00:01:00]
Thinking back I still remember[00:01:06]
I was proud to be his friend[00:01:11]
Momma said don't go near that river[00:01:18]
Don't be hanging 'round old catfish John[00:01:24]
Come the morning I'd always be there[00:01:31]
Walking in his footsteps[00:01:37]
In the sweet delta dawn[00:01:39]
Born a slave in the town of vicksburg[00:01:50]
Traded for a chestnut mare[00:01:56]
But still he never spoke in anger[00:02:02]
Though his load was hard to bear[00:02:08]
Momma said don't go near that river[00:02:15]
Don't be hanging 'round old catfish John[00:02:20]
Come the morning I'd always be there[00:02:28]
Walking in his footsteps[00:02:33]
In the sweet delta dawn[00:02:35]
Momma said don't go near that river[00:02:41]
Don't be hanging 'round old catfish John[00:02:47]
