Mama's Got The Catfish Blues - Tom T. Hall

作词：Tom T. Hall

作曲：Tom T. Hall

I ain't had a bite 'cause the moon's too bright

I wish I had a big one or two

My crock line's set and my hooks are all wet

And mama's got the catfish blues

Don't like to see her unhappy

She treats me like a water tree

I hate to see mama with the catfish blues

And the catfish are layin' in the river asleep

There's a bottle of wine layin' easy on my mind

I dug enough bait to catch a few

My reeling's wet but I cannot forget

Mama's got the catfish blues

There's a turtle on the stump and the toadfrog jump

And I guess I could gig me a few

In settlin' fog I caught a big water dog

Mama's got the catfish blues

I don't like to see her unhappy

She treats me like a water tree

I hate to see mama with the catfish blues

And the catfish are layin' in the river asleep

There's a bottle of wine layin' easy on my mind

I dug enough bait to catch a few

My reeling's wet but I cannot forget

Mama's got the catfish blues yeah
