Album: The Rough Guide to Jazz and Blues Legends: Muddy Waters: Country Blues

Well, I wish I was a catfish,
Swimmin in a oh, deep, blue sea
I would have all you good lookin women,
Fishin, fishin after me
Sure 'nough, a-after me
Sure 'nough, a-after me
Oh 'nough, oh 'nough, sure 'nough

I went to my baby's house,
And I sit down oh, on her steps
She said, "Now, come on in now, Muddy"
"You know, my husband just now left"
"Sure 'nough, he just now left"
"Sure 'nough, he just now left"
Sure 'nough, oh well, oh well

Well, my mother told my father,
Just before hmmm, I was born,
"I got a boy child's comin,"
"He's gonna be, he's gonna be a rollin stone,"
"Sure 'nough, he's a rollin stone,"
"Sure 'nough, he's a rollin stone,"
Oh well he's a, oh well he's a, oh well he's a

Well, I feel, yes I feel,
Feel that I could lay down oh, time ain't long
I'm gonna catch the first thing smokin,
Back, back down the road I'm goin
Back down the road I'm goin
Back down the road I'm goin
Sure 'nough back, sure 'nough back
