Lyrics

Everybody knows catfish got no scale (Catfish got no scale)
Everybody knows that cotton comes in bales (Cotton comes in bales)
The Mississippi River, deep and muddy stream
I just sit on the bank, and fish while I dream
I just said
Ohhh-ohh, oh yeah
Oh, ohhh
Ohhh-oh-oh, I can't pick no cotton
I can't pull no corn
It keeps on raining
But I just can't stay at home
All I can do is say
Ohhh-ohh, oh yeah
Oh, ohhh
Ohhh-oh-oh, I am so miserable
I am so tired
Oh, I just sit on the Mississippi River and watch the fish swim by
My life is confused but I don't wanna die
I want to go to Heaven but I'm scared to fly
All I can do is just say
Ohhh-ohh, all these blues
Oh, ohhh, just keep on singing
Ohhh-ohh
