Lyrics
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, after me
Sure 'nough, 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, "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 hmm, 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'ma 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
