Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Well, I wish I was a catfish
Swimming in a deep blue sea
I would have all you good looking women fishing after me
Fishing after me, fishing after me
Oh well, oh well, oh well
[Verse 2]
Well, I went to my baby's house
And I sat down on her stairs
She said, "Now, come on in now, baby, my husband, he just left
My husband, he just left, my husband, he just left"
Oh well
[Verse 3]
Well, my mother told my father
Just before I, I was born
She said, "Got a boy child coming, he's gonna be
Gonna be a rolling stone, he's gonna be a rolling stone
He's gonna be a rolling"
Oh well
