Sanatçı: Nitty Gritty Dirt Band

albüm: Circlin' Back - Celebrating 50 Years (Live)


Mama said: Don't go near that river
Don't be hanging around old Catfish John
Come the morning I'd always be there
Walking in his footsteps in the sweet Delta dawn
Born a slave in the town of Vicksburg, traded for a chestnut mare
He never spoke in anger though his load was hard to bear.
Mama said: Don't go near that river
Don't be hanging around old Catfish John
Come the morning I'd always be there
Walking in his footsteps in the sweet Delta dawn
Catfish John was a river hobo he lived and died on the river bend
Looking back I still remember
I was proud to be his friend
Mama said: Don't go near that river
Don't be hanging around old Catfish John
Come the morning I'd always be there
Walking in his footsteps in the sweet Delta dawn
Take me back to another morning
To a time so long ago
When the sweet magnolia blossomed
And the cotton fields were white as snow
Mama said: Don't go near that river
Don't be hanging around old Catfish John
Come the morning I'd always be there
Walking in his footsteps in the sweet Delta dawn
Come the morning I'd always be there
Walking in his footsteps in the sweet Delta dawn
