"That's the reason I'd rather be a little catfish
So I could swim way down in the sea
I would have somebody, somebody,
settin' out a line for me
Settin' out a line for me, a line for me
I don't wanna be no tadpole,
and I don't wanna be no bullfrog
And if I can't be a catfish,
I won't swim at all
I won't swim at all, swim at all
That's the reason I want to be a little catfish,
so I could swim way down in the sea
I would have these good-lookin' women,
settin' out a hook for me
Settin' out a hook for me, hook for me."
Skip James - Catfish
Sometimes I'd rather be a catfish too.
Swim away from troubles and everything all and breath.
I just wanna find a girl that loves me and love her. I ask nothing more or less than this.
