They call me Catfish Bates

'Cause I can catch a catfish anytime I want to

Even when the moon man tells me they won't bite

They call me Catfish Bates

'Cause I know where that big ole flathead's a hiddin'

I'm a gonna take him home with me tonight

I am the king of Looseyhatchie

My home is on the river

And them catfish they all know me by my sigh

I keep my nose on the westwind

My eye on the water

And my mind on my business all the time

Well I get me a plug a days worth of tobacco

And a can a big ole redworms

I go down to where the rivers runnin' strong

I throw my hook out on the water

I let it float on down the channel

And I'll have me a big ole flathead 'for too long

They call me Catfish Bates

'Cause I can catch a catfish anytime I want to

Even when the moon man tells me they won't bite

They call me Catfish Bates

'Cause I know where that big ole flathead's a hiddin'

I'm a gonna take him home with me tonight

Oh when they bury me I want to be somewhere on the river

With a big ole flathead layin' on my stone

And them catfish will all be prayin

They'll be flatheads up in heaven

So my ghost will leave them Hatchie cats alone

They call me Catfish Bates

'Cause I can catch a catfish anytime I want to

Even when the moon man tells me they won't bite

They call me Catfish Bates

'Cause I know where that big ole flathead's a hiddin'

And I'm a gonna take him home with me

I'm a gonna take him home with me

I'm a gonna take him home with me tonight
