(chorus)
D G
Mama said don't go near that river.
D A
Don't be hanging around old Catfish John.
D G
But come the morning I'd always be there
D D D
Walking in his footsteps in the sweet delta dawn.
G D
Born a slave in the town of Vicksburg
G D
Traded for a chestnut mare
G D
He never spoke a word in anger,
D A D
though his load was hard to bare
(CHORUS)
Catfish John was a river hobo
he lived and died on the river bend
Thinking back I still remember
I was proud to be his friend.
(CHORUS)
Let me dream of another morning
and a time so long ago
When the sweet magnolias blossomed
and the cotton fields were white as snow
(CHORUS)
