Catfish Blues
Well, I make my living by the hour
Yes, I get my bills paid too
Oh, someday I'm gonna be a funny old man
Just a wearing out the same pair of shoes
Tell you no lies if you don't act wise
It's a hard time killing these blues
But when the catfish tugs on the end of your line
Yeah, you might have something to lose
The maker is a baker with a fortified shaker
Yeah, he knows his timing well
And he knows that it's time to boogie
When he hears them old church bells
Tell you no lies if you don't act wise
It's a hard time killing these blues
But when the catfish tugs on the end of your line
Yeah, you might have something to lose
Is it alright if I spend it all
On the things that'll lead me astray
When there's people that are dying of hunger and thirst
Yeah, it happens every single day
Tell you no lies if you don't act wise
It's a hard time killing these blues
But when the catfish tugs on the end of your line
Yeah, you might have something to lose
It's the rattling sound of the hail and the rain
Beating down on my window pane
And the lonesome wind coming down that road
Lets me know that it's time for a change
Tell you no lies if you don't act wise
It's a hard time killing these blues
But when the catfish tugs on the end of your line
Yeah, you might have something to lose
Tell you no lies if you don't act wise
It's a hard time killing these blues
But when the catfish tugs on the end of your line
Yeah, you might have something to lose
Yes, I get my bills paid too
Oh, someday I'm gonna be a funny old man
Just a wearing out the same pair of shoes
Tell you no lies if you don't act wise
It's a hard time killing these blues
But when the catfish tugs on the end of your line
Yeah, you might have something to lose
The maker is a baker with a fortified shaker
Yeah, he knows his timing well
And he knows that it's time to boogie
When he hears them old church bells
Tell you no lies if you don't act wise
It's a hard time killing these blues
But when the catfish tugs on the end of your line
Yeah, you might have something to lose
Is it alright if I spend it all
On the things that'll lead me astray
When there's people that are dying of hunger and thirst
Yeah, it happens every single day
Tell you no lies if you don't act wise
It's a hard time killing these blues
But when the catfish tugs on the end of your line
Yeah, you might have something to lose
It's the rattling sound of the hail and the rain
Beating down on my window pane
And the lonesome wind coming down that road
Lets me know that it's time for a change
Tell you no lies if you don't act wise
It's a hard time killing these blues
But when the catfish tugs on the end of your line
Yeah, you might have something to lose
Tell you no lies if you don't act wise
It's a hard time killing these blues
But when the catfish tugs on the end of your line
Yeah, you might have something to lose
