Lyrics

Well, I laid down, down last night Well, I tried to take my rest Notion struck me last night, babe I b'lieve I take your stroll out, h'out west Take your stroll out, h'out west Take your stroll out, h'out west Take a stroll out west Take a stroll out west Well, if I were a catfish, mama I says, swimmin' deep down in the blue sea Have these girls now, sweet mama Settin' out, settin' out hooks for po' me Settin' out hooks for-h'or me Settin' out hooks for-h'or me Settin' down hook for me Settin' down hook for me Settin' down hook for me Well, I went down, yes! Down to the church house, yes! Well, I was called on me to pray Fell on my knees, now Mama, I didn't know one Not a word to-who say Not a word to-who say Not a word to-who Not a word to-who Not a word to say Not a word to say Not a word to say (guitar) 'Play 'em man, play 'em a long time' I'm gonna write, write me a letter, baby I'm gonna write it just to see See if my baby, my baby, do she think of Little old thing, on po' me Little old thing, on po' me Little old thing, on po' me Little old thing for me Little old thing for me H'oh, little thing for me.
