Lyrics
Channel Cat
© Jan Schultz and Penny Towers Wilber
He like a pin stripped shirt
And a bass guitar
He looked over his shoulder
Didn't look far
Catfish catfish where you swim?
Catfish catfish come on in
Mississipi river barge
Ten long, two wide
Eighteen thousand horse power
That will drive
Catfish catfish
Where you swim?
Catfish catfish
Come on in
There's a three sink galley
Crawfish on the floor
Beer in the cooler
Reefer and more
Catfish catfish
Where you swim?
Catfish catfish
Come on in
Jean put the axe in the radar
Didn't like a storm
Got a payment to make
Boys we're borne
Catfish catfish
Where you swim?
Catfish catfish
Come on in
Catfish don't like alligator
And cottonmouth too
Prefer an old ford car
To swim on through
Catfish catfish
Where you swim?
Catfish catfish
Come on in.
